Whoever generates the documentation has to have this, because quite a lot of documentation Jamfiles won't work without it. I consider this a bug, but many documentation Jamfiles were written before initializing tools in both user-config.jam and the Jamfile worked correctly, so they require user-config.jam to do all the setup.
I've always thought that it's bad practice to have `using` in Jamfiles rather than `import`. Either one could be made to work, I suppose, and we seem to have tools supporting either idiom; we probably need to pick one and make it official in some way.
