Jamroot is kind of odd. It ignores the targets created with boost-install. Try adding dll-path to this one:

Thank you very much. This does in fact create libraries with rpath defined when I build all of boost.
Actually it's probably better to pass bjam ... dll-path=... on the command line instead of modifying Jamroot.
Would it make sense to modify this web page
http://www.boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/faq/dll-path.html
to indicate that more explicitly? I know I never would have figured it out without your help, but would have immediately found the correct answer if the page was more complete.
I don't think so. That page is not documenting Jamroot at all. It's documenting how the dll-path feature works. As far as it goes it is correct. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
