This is indeed something like this I was looking for. I was wondering if
bjam has a predefined value for this path, value that would be remain
consistent with any boost build folder layout change. I think that would
be helpful for projects that require boost-build.jam only to add folders
to BOOST_BUILD_PATH while using the default boost-build installation.
