Hmm... no, sorry, it's not:
1. I didn't set NOPORTDOCS in /etc/make.conf, yet there's nothing there
besides some html files.
2. /usr/ports/devel/boost-python/work/boost_1_34_1/tools/build/v2/tools
for example contains plenty of .jam files that are needed by bjam to
run. Those are *not* copied over. A few html files are put in doc/,
but not the real stuff (which belongs elsewhere, see 3.).
3. Those files are NOT doc files: they are needed by bjam.
Their "right" place should be something like, say,
/usr/local/lib/boost/tools/...
Thanks,
-cpghost.
