Following instructions given by:

bjam --help-options
Boost.Jam Usage:

   bjam [ options... ] targets...

   * -a; Build all targets, even if they are current.
   * -fx; Read 'x' as the Jamfile for building instead of searching for
     the Boost.Build system.
...

I tried:

cd ~/prog_dev/boost-svn/ro/trunk/sandbox/lje/bjam/
bjam -fJamfile.v2 a
Jamfile.v2:4: in module scope
rule project unknown in module

Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Tue Sep 11 12:57:40

yet:

cd ~/prog_dev/boost-svn/ro/trunk/sandbox/lje/bjam/
bjam a
...
...found 8 targets...

Compilation finished at Tue Sep 11 12:58:48

Jamfile.v2 contains:

exe a : a.cpp ;
