5611	bjam: define the right OS name on Hurd	smr@…	Eric Niebler	"Report from Pino Toscano (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=630652):

Currently bjam does not identify Hurd when using e.g. os.name in jam scripts:
{{{
  $ bjam -v | head -n1
  Boost.Jam  Version 3.1.19. OS=UNKNOWN.
}}}

The attached patch (which should be suitable for upstream inclusion) sets the
correct #define's for Hurd in bjam, adding also the path detection for the
bjam test suite.
{{{
  $ bjam -v | head -n1
  Boost.Jam  Version 3.1.19. OS=HURD.
}}}
