[Boost-build] Installing boost.python

Hi,

I'm trying to build Boost.Python library binaries on my system (NetBSD
4.0) from source. I use bjam with --with-python argument. I also have the
user-config.jam in the building directory. And here is the content of my
user-config.jam:
        using python : 2.4 : /usr/pkg/bin/python2.4 ;

And got the following errors message while building

+++++++++++++++
===> Building for boost-python-1.35.0
python: not found
WARNING: No python installation configured and autoconfiguration
         failed.  See http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/building.html
         for configuration instructions or pass --without-python to
         suppress this message and silently skip all Boost.Python targets

It seems that boost.build can't find python although I've defined the path
to python in my user-config.jam. It seems that boost.build doesn't read my
user-config.jam at all. Is there anyway for me to fix this error ?
Thank you very much,
