Comment(by adfernandes@…):

 Dang. I looked into this, and `boost` also links/builds python, and
 ignores the "--without-python" flag.

 I have no idea why; but I really don't want to spend hours debugging a
 horrible, undocumented tool like the bootstrapped `bjam`.

 Every time I try to ask for help (or have others) the boost developers
 seem bewildered that you'd build a configuration not like theirs. :-(

 If anyone has suggestions, I'm happy to listen!
