Our Jambase is so minimal, it contains juts 37 lines. All it really does is call $TOP/Jamrules and ./Jamfile. We have no recompiled or relines jam executable for the last 2 years. We last recompiled to fix a bug in jam AIX archive support (the bug still exists in the official jam release).
I started to try to do something like that myself, but it seems there's a lot I can't live without. For example, the SubDir rule at least needs the definitions of $(DOTDOT), FSubDir, FDirName, FGrist, and (indirectly) $(DOT). What's your secret?
