Comment (by anevilyak):

 Ah, didn't see that. Then no, it wasn't installed properly. However,
 installoptionalpackage is a basically just a shell script hack that can
 only handle a subset of the full list of build-time optional packages,
 i.e. the ones that just unzip a file. More complex ones that use other jam
 directives can't be handled by it, such as this one and the Development
 packages. That's not realistically something that will be fixed since it
 will be superseded by the actual package management anyways.
