8499	improving pgi support	alan@…		"I have access to PGI 12.2 and 12.5 on a Cray XE6 system.  The current boostcpp.jam specifically doesn't build ""versioned"" .so files on PGI (and there's a comment in the file that indicates they don't work).  However, it appears to work for me.  To be fair, I don't know if it's due to changes in the compiler versions since pgi.jam was developed or if some of my other pgi.jam changes fascillitated this in some way.  I am not very familiar with jamfiles... I modified my changes based on cray.jam and gcc.jam, but this appears to be working for me.

My second change is specifically to better support PGI on Cray systems.  Cray's compiler wrappers automatically scan the commandline looking for the ""-shared"", ""-static"", ""-Bshared"", and ""-Bstatic"" to detect if the userswe is attempting to compile dynamically or statically (and adds additional options as necessary).  These wrappers consider it an error to find both a ""static"" and a ""shared"" flag on the same command line.  pgi.jam does this using the -Bst coatic/-Bshared flags to control linking behavior.  However, if these options are passed as -Wl,-Bstatic... this won't trigger the error condition in the compiler wrappers, and (of course) passes the option through to ld(1).  I believe this is a reasonable changes for non-Cray systems."	Bugs	new	To Be Determined	Building Boost	Boost 1.52.0	Problem
