My own project uses the boost build. In the root of my project tree I have
a file boost-build.jam.
Which has always been:

     BOOST_BUILD ?= $(BOOST_ROOT)/tools/build/v2 ;

This no longer works. To get things to work I had to change to:

     BOOST_BUILD ?= $(BOOST_ROOT)/tools/build/src ;

This is a shame, since in the past I only had to change a environment
variable BOOST_ROOT
to switch between different boost version !
