You'd need the change the command used to invoke the compiler in your
user-config.jam

  using sun : : purify CC ;

If you want to have both non-purify and purify builds, define two versions:

  using sun : 8.0 ;
  using sun : 8.0-purify : purify CC ;

(I'm not sure 8.0 is nearway close the real version numbers, I've lost in
sun compiler versioning ;-). The version is just for identification
however, it has not effect on anything).
