It's not safe to mix files from different versions of Boost.Build.
Can you remove the using python line from user-config.jam?

You're missing the boostbook XSL stylesheets and dtd.
They are in tools/boostbook in a normal Boost distribution
and are not distributed separately as far as I know.
using boostbook takes an third parameter to specify
where the boostbook stylesheets are installed.
