This is not possible at this moment. --libdir and --includedir
are handled by Boost's Jamfiles, while user-config.jam is
generic Boost.Build configuration file. I though about
using some project-config.jam file where you can put random
per-project-per-user data to avoid typing it on command line,
but nothing is done yet.
