Thanks, this helped resolve the issue.
As I proceed along, I see an issue with building process_jam_log.
    "CC" -library=stlport4 -xO4 -erroff=%none -KPIC -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1
-DBOOST_FILESYSTEM_STATIC_LINK=1 -DBOOST_SYSTEM_STATIC_LINK=1 -DNDEBUG
-D_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS -I"../../.." -c -o
"bin/sun-5.13/release/process_jam_log.o" "../src/process_jam_log.cpp"

"../src/process_jam_log.cpp", line 356: Error: The function "system"
must have a prototype.
1 Error(s) detected.
...failed sun.compile.c++ bin/sun-5.13/release/process_jam_log.o...

Looks like I would need to patch process_jam_log.cpp by qualifying
system as std::system.

In 
http://www.boost.org/development/running_regression_tests.html
I see that I can create patch_boost script to locally modify the sources before testing.
I'm not sure what patch_boost should contain.
Is there an example(for patch_boost) that I could look into?

Thanks,

Aparna
