This is a huge problem with the current sandbox organization. After spending a couple hours the other day trying to get boost.build to work in the sandbox tree I gave up in frustration and had to copy sandbox directories into my boost tree to use bjam. This is very annoying to say the least.

I made it work for Units by putting <include>$(BOOST_ROOT) <include>../../.. in the test and example Jamfiles, and setting BOOST_ROOT appropriately in boost-build.jam and project-root.jam
Interesting... Can you post your modified boost-build.jam and other files? As I recall now the I couldn't get bjam to recognize it's home in the main boost tree even though I set up the build home and tried other ways as well.
To build the documentation I had to make a few edits to Boost.Build.
Scary ;-) Jeff
