BUG: on linux, the non-standard <wait.h> is included, breaking build with musl libc

Reported by: anonymous Owned by: Vladimir Prus
Milestone: To Be Determined Component: build
Version: Boost 1.52.0 Severity: Showstopper
Keywords: Cc:

Description

wait.h is not linux-specific, but GLIBC specific. here's the patch that makes it work. without this patch, it is not possible to build boost on any non-glibc linux platform.

(In [82549]) Don't include wait.h on Linux.

The function we use are all supposed to be in sys/wait.h

Fixes #7847.
