I'm glad to help.

I traced down the problem. Reason why it wasn't working properly was that
the catalog.xml file was lost somewhere and not generated again.

I have commented out "NOUPDATE $(actual)" in "rule xml-catalog-action" in boostbook.jam
and it works fine now.

This would help. But it would be nice to find some way how to reference
other parts of the library documentation from the code comments.

It would probably need to use some special doxygen tag which will be transalted
to a link.
