So, after grabbing the newest gcc-tools.jam I was able to successfully
override GCC and GXX, thanks!
The next problem is that I see that the Boost tools are postprocessing
the .o's with objcopy (not quite sure what that's about). But, of
course, I need to override this to use my version of objcopy and not
the hardcoded one at /usr/bin/objcopy. Simply using
-sOBJDIR=<my-objdir> doesn't work.
Also, if Boost needs ar to build I'll need to be able to override that
as well.
Do you really have to write special-case code for each of these values
in the jamfiles in order to allow the command line to override them?
