[Boost-build] BBv2 failing self-test

Hi, I am using BBv2 from boost-1_33_1. I successfully built
bjam and also configured my user-config.jam (only 1 line
added to where my gcc compiler is). Then, I cd into
the test directory and run the tests like so:

% python2.4 test_all.py >& /tmp/log

The output logfile (long) pretty much only passes the first 9
tests (and some other things) but after the first 9 tests,
all other tests pretty much fail.

I then go over to the example directory and try running bjam on
them. So far the only examples that run for me are:
hello, libraries.

Can anyone give me pointers to pass all the self-tests and compile
all the examples? Or should I not worry about these? I am currently
evaluating if bjam can replace make or not and these results are
not encouraging. I am running this on:
GNU/Linux 2.6.9-42.0.3.EL (CentOS)

I can post the self-test log file if necessary (its pretty long).

Thanks for any help with this.
PS. I also tried boost-build-2.0-m11 and boost-jam-3.1.13 and got the
same results.
