-----------------------------------------------------------+----------------
 This patch brings small update to trunk/Jamroot file required by
 [http://www.comeaucomputing.com/ Comeau C++] compiler. I've tested the
 settings only under Linux 32-bit using Linux release of
 [http://www.comeaucomputing.com/4.3.0/minor/linux/ Comeau C/C++ 4.3.10.1]
 with GCC 4.3.3 and GNU C Library 2.9.

 Basically, the patch requests static linking of Boost binary libraries
 (Comeau does not support generation of shared modules) and enables
 POSIX/SVID and C99 features from glibc.

 Background of this patch is discussed here:
 [http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2009/11/159180.php First results
 using Comeau C/C++ compiler]

 Note, this patch is not sufficient to compile full collection of Boost
 libraries. There is also number of issues specific to particular libraries
 that I hope to patch too. However, this patch has been confirmed as a
 requirement.
