[C++-sig] build boost.python with unusual gcc AND python paths

[ZiZi Zhao]

There are some standard installation in my system: /usr/bin/g++ is v3.4.x and python v2.4.4. 

There are also installed g++ v4.0.2 and python 2.5.1 installed. I want to build boost.python with g++_4.0.2 and python_2.5.1. But, bjam seems to be unfriendly to unusual paths of g++ and python. 

I have all -sGCC_ROOT_DIRECTORY, -sGCC_BIN_DIRECTORY, -sGCC -sPYTHON_ROOT, -sPYTHON_VERSION set for 'bjam' with my choices. However, every time when I tried to build boost.python with the unusual g++ and python, I saw bjam being very "smart" to tell me the information: "... you have python 2.4.4 at /... (the python 2.4.4 root)"; and using "g++-in-action" to compile and build everything. 

How can I make sure I got the Boost.Python from the right versions of g++ and python? 

Thanks in advance, 

Z.Z.
