Andy, Glad to be of help, but just to make sure we are on the same page - this will not let you build RDKit itself without boost jam. This however will allow you (once RDKit has been compiled) compile and link your own projects with RDKit libraries using standard Makefile mechanism.
The reason for this is simple - while I was able to build RDKit by blindly following instructions I was too lazy/stupid to move my own projects from Makefile to Jamroot.
