Re: [Boost-build] qcc toolset

Volodya,

Having spent some time trying to get your version of qcc.jam working I 
have taken the executive decision to revert to my original plan and 
produce qcc.jam as a sibling of gcc.jam and, not as a child if gcc.jam.

Although qcc is based on gcc the command sets are *so* different and I 
found myself overloading almost every statement. In addition I would 
have needed to modify some of the platform conditional logic in gcc.jam 
which I did not want to do. I trust you will not be offended at this 
decision.

The file is attached and it runs the hello & libraries test but there 
are errors with test_all.py.

I have also started a run of the regression tests but I stopped when I 
saw that there is a problem with qcc.link. I need to add 'libm' to each 
of the linking rules because it has been omitted from the default search 
list on this platform.  I have tried adding this as FINDLIBS and 
FINDLIBS-SA but it does not always show up in the right places.

The current (development only - not committed to cvs) file is attached. 
Can you advise?

Thanks
Jim
