[Boost-users] bjam how to access python version, when installing

In my site-config.jam file I have:

using python
     :  2.5   # version
     : # cmd-or-prefix
     : # includes
     : # libraries
     : # condition
     ;

I want to install my boost python extension, into site-packages.
How can i access the python version defined in "using python" ?

There does not seem to be any reference to this in the doc's
so i'm not sure how common a request this is, or if there are
better alternatives.

Any help appreciated.

   Best regards,
Ta,
