Summary: This adds a way to pass arguments to the b2 build tool, used by Boost. This is needed in order to link a getdeps built boost into an relocatable .so. The motivating use case is that we need to statically link Boost into a native library used by a python wheel, which must be relocatable. This functionality already exists for CMake-based projects.
