Cross-compiling and Boost.Jam? You have a stronger soul than I. Just
changing CFLAGS and the preferred installation prefix was hell, and then I had to figure out why jam coredumped as soon as it started... Autoconf may be nasty but it's a lot kinder to packagers/builders than bloody jam. While KDE was searching for a new build system for KDE4 I was in terror that they'd choose Boost.Jam because it was used for a successful C++ project. Thankfully they are not utterly insane and chose something nicer (now with added lowercase! ;)))) )

Initial support for building Boost using CMake has been committed to the
Boost repository a few weeks ago.
