Tools: Wave missing

[tiagogehring@…]

The documentation states that the Wave tool is distributed with boost but as of version 1.56 there is no tools/wave directory (referenced in Jamfile.v2) so that running the build tool in the tools/ directory fails:

(from the tools directory)

Wave was moved during migration to GIT to be an example instead of a tool. I have no idea what needs to be done to get it do build as a tool again :(

Well, clarify that it's in separate repo(or other place) in documentation and remove it's reference from build system. Or bring it back, if it's possible.

Patches are most welcome ;-)

Just execute something like 'sed -i -e 's:wave/build//wave::' tools/Jamfile.v2'(picked from here - ​https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/dev-libs/boost/boost-1.56.0-r1.ebuild?revision=1.13&view=markup) and commit it into the repo, please
