Well the Jamfile-engine is more for developing Haiku applications,
which at this point are pretty rare since Haiku itself is still in
development. But yes, at some point it would make sense to make the
Jamfile-engine more freely available, but as I said before it has some
bugs and could probably be greatly revamped based on what Ingo has
learned in creating the Haiku build system on top of Jam. I wrote it
about 5 years ago in the very early days of the project, and in fact
it was written on BeOS and for use in BeOS. Though it may work out of
the box on Haiku.
