[Boost-testing] Solaris Testing Changes

For various reasons including an impending disk space quota, I need to
permanently discontinue the Boost regression tests I'm running for
gcc-3.4.3on SunOS
5.8/SPARC.  This is, unfortunately, one of the release target platforms.
These tests can continue for a couple of more days, but I will need to stop
them completely by the end of next week (June 30).

On the plus side of the ledger, I have a machine running SunOS 5.10/x86 +
gcc-4.1.1 on which I can (and have) start running the regression tests to
pick up some of the slack.  The results are all-green right now except for
two MPL tests:

* apply.cpp produces an ICE on gcc 4.1.x and has been reported to the gcc
bugzilla (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28088)
* multiset.cpp is failing on several platforms, so I think this is not a
specific SunOS problem (*http://tinyurl.com/r4p6j)*

So, would there be any objections to me marking the
gcc-4.1.1_sunos_i86pctoolset as "required" and removing
gcc-3.4.3_sunos from explicit-failures-markup.xml?

Is there anyone who can pick up the SunOS/SPARC + gcc testing?  Perhaps Doug
(OSL4-V2)?
