I think I was too hasty before. This is exactly what I'm trying. The 
command line is this:

$ ./bjam toolset=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ 
--prefix=/home/dave/workspace/urbi_ardrone_source/boost_1_45_0/ 
--debug-configuration install

I get two kinds of output, regular output and error output. This is the 
error output.

...clip...
arm.jam: No such file or directory
...end clip...

Then, this is the regular output.

...clip...

at this point I get the command prompt back again. If I change the 
command line to the following with 'toolset=' removed:

$ ./bjam arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ 
--prefix=/home/dave/workspace/urbi_ardrone_source/boost_1_45_0/ 
--debug-configuration install

boost compiles with regular gcc. It says:

..clip...
notice: will use 'g++' for gcc, condition <toolset>gcc-4.4.5
...later...
notice: could not find main target arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++
notice: assuming it is a name of file to create.
...end clip...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
