#5677: Bootstrap fails with python versions 3.1 and up

-----------------------------------------------------+----------------------
Using bootstrap.sh to build boost with python versions 3.1 and up
generates output similar to the following and the subsequent build fails
for boost.python:
Detecting Python version... 3.2
Detecting Python root... File "<string>", line 1
import sys; print sys.prefix
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
This appears to be caused by the code checking for the python root using a
form of the 'print' function that is no longer valid in later versions of
python. Attached is a patch that fixes this issue.
