And you can find the jam file for aCC on HP-UX in
tools/build/v2/tools/acc.jam. You can look at HP-UX Linker options
in acc.jam. In gcc.jam, you can look at conditionalization for osf
(Tru64) as an example.

Btw, there may be a bug in gcc.jam:

  switch [ modules.peek : JAMUNAME ]
  ...
  case HP_UX :

Why is HP_UX and not HP-UX which is what uname(1) returns?
And why is it not HPUX which is what os.name returns?
What should it be?

Thanks,
  Boris
