Thanks a lot Steve. I tried your exact same instructions and this is my
output. 
Please note that I am using boost_1_51_0. 

1. I exported the environment variables and changed the user-config.jam as
you had mentioned. 
2. I ran 
*./bootstrap.sh --prefix=INSTALL_DIR*

Here is the output on the console and in bootstrap.log 

*Console* : 

No toolset specified. Please use --toolset option

Bootstrapping is done. To build, run:
cp: cannot stat `./tools/build/v2/engine/###\n###
cp: cannot stat `./tools/build/v2/engine/###\n###
./b2

*Bootstrap.log* - 

Using 'cc' toolset
...updating 3 targets...
[MKDIR] bin.linuxx86_64
[COMPILE] bin.linuxx86_64/b2
[COPY] bin.linuxx86_64/bjam
...updated 3 targets...

3. However b2 and bjam got built in this location - 
tools/build/v2/engine/bin.linuxx86_64/b2

Setting export CPPFLAGS="cxxflags=-fPIC"  and running 
./tools/build/v2/engine/bin.linuxx86_64/b2 $CPPFLAGS --toolset=gcc

gives the errors on console.

These are the "erraneous" lines in project-config.jam. Would we have to
change these too?

# Compiler configuration. This definition will be used unless
# you already have defined some toolsets in your user-config.jam
# file.
if !  in [ feature.values <toolset> ]
{
    using  ;
}

project : default-build <toolset> ;

Thanks again,
Arjun
