# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_BOOST_SYSTEM
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Test for System library from the Boost C++ libraries. The macro requires
#   a preceding call to AX_BOOST_BASE. Further documentation is available at
#   <http://randspringer.de/boost/index.html>.
#
#   This macro calls:
#
#     AC_SUBST(BOOST_SYSTEM_LIB)
#
#   And sets:
#
#     HAVE_BOOST_SYSTEM
