Hi,

I'm trying to do a bjam build of boost packages including iostreams. I 
have zlib installed under /unusual/location

./bjam include=/unusual/location/include install

fails because it cannot find -lz. Obviously, I need to specify that libz 
is in /unusual/location/lib, but I don't see how to do that.

I realize this seems obvious. Which part of the documentation am I missing?

Thanks,
Jim Amundson
