There isn't any equivalent to "make install" in Boost.Build, yet. However, you 
might consider adding a stage target to put the binaries into a more 
accessible location, e.g., the Jamfile might contain:

(borrowed from libs/thread/build/Jamfile)
    stage bin-stage
        : <dll>boost_signals
        : <tag><debug>"d"
        : debug release
    ;
