Yep.

Use the <include> and <sysinclude> features to specify #include "" and
#include<> paths. Use <library-path> to specify library search paths,
and <find-library> to specify built libraries. You might look at the
contents of 

  http://www.boost.org/libs/python/example/project.zip

for an example. Some narrative text about that file can be found at:


  http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/building.html

We know, the docs are a bit thin so far, sorry!
