I can offer a specific disrecommendation for Jamfile.  I had a classic
Very Bad experience with that last year.  There's a whole missing
middle of documentation--there's recipe book instructions and there's
basic implementation ones (which include the source code), but nothing
about how they hook up together.  Overall, it's not ready for medium-
sized uses.  Since you're not in the surface-usage class, expect to
learn the whole tool in its entirety and gory detail in order to
finish your task.

Having said that, I don't have an alternate to recommend you.

Eric
