   Slight correction - you can not use the project-id defined by the
use-project rule as the boost-system project module already defines its
own project id boost/system and so the id specified with the use-project
rule seems to be ignored (hmmmm - also something to look into... this
should perhaps be added as an additional project id for the same project
or at least reported as an error...).

   You can use the boost/system one though, as in:
     /boost/system//boost_system

   Hope this helps.
