I have access to this platform.  When I tried to compile the boost libraries with xlC 6 I got lots of template related errors in the math library (the first library bjam tries to build) but I didn't see his fusion errors.  xlC 6 is not very standards compliant - upgrading to xlC 10 would really help if that is an option.  But like I said, I can't get that far even - my attempt at compiling the trunk dies with a similar error to his "declared but not defined" error:
