9176	Intel compiler needs custom archiver	John Maddock	Vladimir Prus	"The Intel C++ compiler should have static libraries built with xiar not ar on Linux, probably on OSX as well but I don't know about that for sure.  Without this static libraries built with -ipo (inter procedural optimizations) are non-usable.  I'm attaching a partial patch for this, but note that:

* It's only a partial solution since the Intel setup script isn't called before calling xiar - I couldn't figure out how to achieve that.
* Compiled executables often don't run - again the Intel setup script needs to be run before the executable so that Intel's shared libraries can be found.  One workaround would be to always link with the -static-intel flag."	Bugs	new	To Be Determined	build	Boost Development Trunk	Problem			jennifer.l.jiang@…
