[Boost-testing] [v2] gcc.jam on Solaris

I sent a similar message on another thread, but I'm concerned it has gotten
lost.

My regression.py runs using BBv2 on Solaris are failing a large number of
tests due to an invalid command line option being passed to the linker.  The
problem is that "-Wl,-rpath-link" isn't valid for the Solaris linker (see *
http://tinyurl.com/jeecl*).

There seems to be some logic in v2/tools/gcc.jam to handle this (see "case
sun" in init-link-flags) but later the "actions link bind" explicitly uses
-Wl,-rpath-link which I believe is the problem.

I don't know enough bjam magick to know how to fix this, sorry.
