Description
It seems that the tools/build/v2/tools/python.jam file is broken when used in Mac OS X (darwin). I had many problems when trying to compile libtorrent's python bindings using bjam and they all were finally solved by changing this file.
I would suggest applying the following patch to the code. This fixes the missing "python_for_extensions" rule problem, and allows for properly setting the include paths (without relying on env vars). For linking I just used "-framework Python". I don't get what all the $(PYTHON_FRAMEWORK) stuff is about. With the "official" python install, gcc automatically finds the framework.

I am transitioning away from participating in Boost.Build development, and I think Rene is in a better position to evaluate the patch, so reassigning to him

python.jam appears to be substantially rewritten, making the patch no longer applicable. Should there be some problems with SVN HEAD, please open new ticket.
Patch to tools/build/v2/tools/python.jam
