we are using bjam for 1.32.0

not ever having built boost before i am not 100% sure it is done right 
(im more of a windows user (boost wise) that includes a few headers, 
never built the libs on windows)

i can show you the command lines used, i went over the docs, and *to me* 
it seems fine, but apparently this isn't really the case

the build process will also display the

cd ${S}/tools/build/jam_src

where ${S} is the source dir of boost as it is unpacked in a temporary 
location in gentoo
