I'd start by just following this recommendation

        note: to enable MPI support, add "using mpi ;" to user-config.jam.

and then run bjam to see what, if any, errors the mpi auto  
configuration reports.

What does your user-config.jam look like, what are the errors you're  
getting, which mpi (Mpich, Openmpi, Lam, ...) and which version.   
Also which version of intel compilers on what platform?

Here's one of our configurations:

using mpi
   : /usr/local/mpi/mpich/64Bit/1.2.7/gcc-3.4.3/bin/mpiCC
   :
   : /usr/local/mpi/mpich/64Bit/1.2.7/gcc-3.4.3/bin/mpirun
   ;
