Boost is now incompatible with the boost-jam port. boost-jam needs to be uninstalled first. The version of bjam distributed outside of boost is too old to compile boost itself.

I just removed the conflict with boost-jam in r73900 even though boost won't build with it. It appears that boost will always use its local bjam to build, making the boost-jam port superfluous, but harmless.
