Because you're trying to use Boost.Jam instead of jam.

This is Boost.Jam that you are trying to use:
http://www.boost.org/tools/build/jam_src/index.html

While this is the make replacement that supertux uses:
http://www.perforce.com/jam/jam.html

Download and install jam and use that instead, it should work all right.
Good luck.
