Within this, one invokes the "boost- build" rule to indicate where the Boost.Build system files are, and to load them. If the Boost.Build system isn't loaded yet we error and exit, giving brief instructions on possible errors. We attempt to load "project-root.jam" by searching from the current invocation directory up to the root of the file-system. When found its location is noted as the PROJECT_ROOT. Finaly we load the "Jamfile" in the invocation directory.
