You can find all jam files here:
http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/tools/build_extensions/ext
I use:
zlib.jam
png.jam
jpeg.jam
libtiff.jam

I'm not sure what that means. A user has to point to the source code
somehow. How should we do that? Using environmental variables?

Again, how would you do that?
Thanks for your help!
