Purify (IBM/Rational) has the same problem.

I tried:

        using gcc : purify : purify gcc ;

but that does not work (for me) because the "purify gcc"
command is used for compilation, library link and app link.
The "library link" fails because purify is only supposed
to be used during the application link step.
