patches for improved NetBSD/pkgsrc support

[brook]

In order to better support Boost via the NetBSD/pkgsrc system, a few patches are required, mainly to detect some special cases for DragonFly BSD.

I have been contributing these patches to the NetBSD/pkgsrc packaging system to improve the transparency of building Boost. I have also been running daily builds on both i386 and amd64 systems based on the patches. The results of those builds are available under the NetBSD heading at:

http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/summary.html

The patches themselves are available via the link above or directly at

​http://abies.nmsu.edu/boost/

Note that both patch directories there have the same contents; they are separated only to reflect the two different build systems.

Please apply these patches to the trunk so that future Boost packages will be easier to produce. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the patches. I'm using pkgsrc on OpenBSD and Linux and I love it.

Here is a summary of patches: patch-ac: libs/regex/src/wide_posix_api.cpp patch-ad: boost/config/suffix.hpp patch-af: boost/config/platform/bsd.hpp patch-ak: boost/wave/token_ids.hpp patch-am: tools/build/v2/tools/python.jam patch-ap: Jamroot patch-aq: boost/test/impl/execution_monitor.ipp

It is my understanding that everything from this issue was filed separately. Closing this one.
