Does anyone have an idea why b2 looks for the tools/inspect Jamfile?
I seem to recall that someone (Beman maybe?) used inspect in his test Jamfile.
No, it's probably this part of Jamroot:
if [ path.exists $(BOOST_ROOT)/tools/inspect ]
{
   use-project /boost/tools/inspect : tools/inspect/build ;
}
tools/inspect does exist as an empty directory in a freshly cloned superproject. This should probably be
if [ path.exists $(BOOST_ROOT)/tools/inspect/build ]
Fair enough; I've pushed such a change to develop - could you give it a try?
