New Revision: 41409

Log:
Allow Sun-5.7 and Sun-5.8 to fail loudly for Boost.Python so I can see
what's really wrong.

-            This compiler seems to be having trouble digesting
+              The old reasoning given for this markup, which applied
+              to sun-5.8*, was as follows.  However, tuple's tests
+              seem to use the test library, which is apparently
+              completely broken on Sun.  Therefore, I've backed off
+              the version number to sun-5.6 so I can see the actual
+              state of the failures.
