-------------------------------------------+-------------------------
 Compiling log library with Oracle Developer Studio compiler in 64 bit
 mode, we see the following failure:

 CC ... -m64 -KPIC -o libboost_log_setup.so.1.62.0 ...
 settings_parser.o.... libboost_regex.a ...

 ld: fatal: relocation error: R_SPARC_H44: file
 libboost_regex.a(cpp_regex_traits.o): symbol .data (section): invalid
 shared object relocation type: ABS44 code model unsupported

 ...

 In libs/regex/build/Jamfile.v2, removing the following line, resolves the
 issue.
 <toolset>sun:<link>static
