You can compile and run it as it is as a separate
tool. It generates BoostBook XML which has to be
processed later.

No. The Boost.Build v2 facilities are provided only
to make life easier for boost developers.

The tool process is as as follows:
1) QuickBook processes a .qbk file and generates xml.
2) BoostBook processes the xml and along with other
   backend generators, the end result is a set of html
   pages or pdf files.

Both will work. It's your choice. I think a good first step,
is to actually determine if QuickBook is working by compiling
it from source and running the application, passing in the
QuickBook doc: quickbook.qbk (in the quikcbook/doc directory).
It should then generate a quickbook.xml file.

You're welcome.
