Hi,

When I try to run the iostreams tests with 'bjam -q' they don't run
(they run fine without the '-q' flag). I think it's because the
'has_icu' configuration check (in 'libs/regex/build/Jamfile.v2')
failed (since I don't have icu) and '-q' causes bjam to stop at that
point. I'm using '-q' because I want it to stop at a compiler error or
failed test, the configuration failure isn't a problem for me. Would
it be possible to continue after failed configuration checks, or maybe
for regex to flag a configuration failure as okay?

thanks,

Daniel
