However, if I pass ""--pythonbla"", I get a very mysterious failure: {{{ steve@riemann{boost}./bjam --pythonbla Boost.Build V2 Python port (experimental) /home/steve/Packages/boost/upstream/testing/trunk/boost/tools/build/v2/kernel/bootstrap.jam:223: in boost-build rule PYTHON_IMPORT_RULE unknown in module /home/steve/Packages/boost/upstream/testing/trunk/boost/boost-build.jam:17: in module scope }}} Why is this?
