jam -q <targetname> will build a particular target only, i.e. in your
case, jam AboutHaiku. Note however, that by definition it must also
build all of that target's dependencies, ergo it will at a minimum
have to build libbe/libroot/liblocale if those aren't also considered
up to date. If you've updated Haiku in between each day, that will
likely have updated the system headers and a few other things which
are part of the dependency chain, so as far as jam is concerned
they'll need to be rebuilt. Also, if your hardware has multiple cores,
-j2 or -j4 may help you a bit performance-wise.
