Syl 6251983780 WARNING: I broke the compatibility with previous boost.py
- removed "static" parameter, now use stlib to specify static libs (added a warning if you were using it)
- removed "mt" parameter, now specify it as part of the abi (see help)
- added "stlib" parameter, to specify which lib will be linked statically. "lib" is used to link shared libs.

explanation:
After struggling to link Boost.Log, the problem lies into which libs can/must be linked statically and dynamically.
I built a small test with only system, locale, log_setup, log and thread, and could link it as static.
But after adding boost_filesystem, I couldn't link everything as static anymore and would fail on a dependency in "locale" (icu, nconv).
Linking everything as shared would failed aswell (log). But linking only "locale" as shared, and the rest as static would work.
Hence the change.

Since I broke everything, I figured I would rework the "mt" parameter, since it's kinda part of the abi on windows.

README

WHAT YOU WILL FIND HERE
-----------------------

Waf 1.8 - for Waf 1.7 use the branch waf-1.7

For the manual: http://docs.waf.googlecode.com/git/book_16/single.html
For the api docs: http://docs.waf.googlecode.com/git/apidocs_16/index.html
For the examples: see the folder demos/

HOW TO CREATE THE WAF SCRIPT
----------------------------

Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1 or 3.2 is required to generate the waf script. Execute:
$ ./waf-light configure build
Or, if you have several python versions installed:
$ python3 ./waf-light configure build

The Waf tools in waflib/extras are not added to the waf script. To add
some of them, use the --tools switch:
$ ./waf-light --tools=compat15,swig

To add a tool that does not exist in the folder extras, pass an absolute path, and
to customize the initialization, pass the parameter 'prelude'. Here is for example
how to create a waf file using the compat15 module:
$ ./waf-light --tools=compat15 --prelude=$'\tfrom waflib.extras import compat15\n'

Any kind of initialization is possible, though one may prefer the build system kit (folder build_system_kit):
$ ./waf-light --make-waf --tools=compat15,/comp/waf/aba.py --prelude=$'\tfrom waflib.extras import compat15\n\tprint("ok")'

Or if you do not want to regenerate the waf file all the time, set the WAFDIR environment variable to the directory containing "waflib".

HOW TO TRY THE EXAMPLES
-----------------------

Try this:
$ cp waf demos/c/
$ cd demos/c/
$ ./waf configure build

USING GIT
---------

$ git clone https://code.google.com/p/waf/
set $HOME/.netrc to read:
machine code.google.com login user@gmail.com password pass
$ git remote add code https://code.google.com/p/waf.docs/
... make a few changes
$ git push code
