Can you share how you succeeded a cross compiling the tests, I didn't have luck.

That is along the right track.  But I don't want to have to do that for every boost test file.

This isn't for my own tests, I want to run the boost tests.

I sort of need a global launcher that I can hook into.

You could use testing.launcher, like this:
  b2 testing.launcher=my_custom_launcher
It'll call my_custom_launcher to run your tests.

I've managed to cross-compile boost for BlackBerry10 devices.  (Side-note: there is very little docs on cross compiling)

Now, how would I go about "cross-running" the boost tests?

In particular, can I hook into the unit-test and/or run rules of Boost.Build?
I guess you should see how Boost.Build could support this.

Best,

Right.  That's kind of what I'm asking.  Does Boost.Build support this already? Is there a way to hook into 'run'?  I don't find Boost.Build (or docs) easy to use/understand, so my poking around at it didn't find anything, but I could have easily missed it.
