------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 Boost 1.48.0 doesn't compile on SunOS 5.10 with the following error:

 sun.compile.c++ /boost-1.48.0.0/object-optimize/SunOS-5.10-i386/build-
 boost-test/boost/bin.v2/libs/test/build/sun/release/link-static/stdlib-
 sun-stlport/threading-multi/unit_test_parameters.o
 "/usr/include/stdlib.h", line 120: Error: putenv(char*) was declared
 before with a different language.


 The following patch does fix the problem:
