Hi all. It seems that the tools/build/v2/tools/python.jam file is broken when used in Mac OS X (darwin). I had many problems when trying to compile libtorrent's python bindings using bjam and they all were finally solved by changing this file.
I would suggest applying the following patch to the code. This fixes the missing "python_for_extensions" rule problem, and allows for properly setting the include paths (without relying on env vars). For linking I just used "-framework Python". I don't get what all the $ (PYTHON_FRAMEWORK) stuff is about. With the "official" python install, gcc automatically finds the framework.
