It takes 2GB of RAM for jam to build boost, compilers and linkers apart. I don't think it scales any well. In my projects I use cmake, but I don't know how portable it is beyond the usual OSes around. I've used it succesfully for cross-compilation too, without troubles. I clearly understand the advantages of a good autotools *result*: a shell script that works in many places. That's outstanding compared to the rest of tools proposed, so although I will not do the work on making fossil autotools-ready, I understand the people wanting it.
