 Report from Pino Toscano (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-

 bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=630652):

 Currently bjam does not identify Hurd when using e.g. os.name in jam
 scripts:
 {{{
   $ bjam -v | head -n1
   Boost.Jam  Version 3.1.19. OS=UNKNOWN.
 }}}

 The attached patch (which should be suitable for upstream inclusion) sets
 the
 correct #define's for Hurd in bjam, adding also the path detection for the
 bjam test suite.
 {{{
   $ bjam -v | head -n1
   Boost.Jam  Version 3.1.19. OS=HURD.
 }}}
