----------------------------------------------------+-----------------------
 shared libraries build with bjam/boost.build on MIPS using position-
 independed code do not work correctly/generating segmentation fault.
 Compiling the library 'by hand' doesn't issue an error.

 build libboost_fn with bjam:
 bjam toolset=gcc link=shared variant=debug cxxflags="-fPIC" --with-fn
 stage

 build test app:
 g++ -g ./test.cpp -I./ -L./stage/lib -lboost_fn -Wl,-rpath=./stage/lib
 -lrt

 ./a.out with segementation fault at fn1.S:
 'lw $t9, %call16(exit)($gp)'


 build libbost_fn by hand:
 g++ -fPIC -g -I./ -c -Wall fn1.S
 g++ -shared -Wl,-soname,libboost_fn, -o libboost_fn fn1.o -lc

 build test app:
 g++ -g ./test.cpp -I./ -L./ -lboost_fn -Wl,-rpath=./ -lrt

 ./a.out works and returns with exit code 2.

 It seams to be a bug in bjam/boost.build.
