As you will have seen, that's not a platform we routinely test on, 
however, I see no good reason why it shouldn't work just fine.

I suggest you run the tests for the libraries you're interested in, if 
that's Boost.Log, then after bootstrapping with:

./bootstrap.sh
./b2 --with-log

you can then run the log library's tests with:

./b2 libs/log/test

As per the getting started instructions (see 
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_64_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html#or-build-custom-binaries), 
you may need to add toolset=something to the b2 command lines, maybe 
also with some flags to turn on C++11 or 14 support if you wanted that, 
for example:

./b2 --with-log toolset=gcc cxxflags=-std=c++11

HTH, John.
