2437,regex library build failure on FreeBSD machines,pisymbol@…,John Maddock,"In boost/libs/regex/build/Jamfile.v2, if ICU is installed in /usr/local/include we fail to set the BOOST_REGEX_ICU_OPTS and ICU_SEARCH_OPTS which breaks the build.  The above code is assuming gcc will look at /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib as during compilation which is NOT true at least on FreeBSD.

I've suggested to remove the /usr/local/include but it seems this may break some Linux builds.  Instead the following patch will allow regex lib to build properly:
