patch to devel/boost-libs/Makefile

boost-libs has proven to be broken on sparc64.

This patch also adds back the aarch64 line originally added in r426143 but later removed in r426908.  It is still failing on aarch64.

>+BROKEN_aarch64=		Fails to compile: multiple instances of error: platform not supported

According to bug 213867 the error message should be different with Boost 1.62. So, limit to FreeBSD releases with Clang < 3.9 i.e., FreeBSD <= 11.0. Later versions may build fine but so far no one volunteered to confirm.

>+BROKEN_sparc64=		Fails to compile: multiple instances of error: platform not supported

Looks OK considering https://github.com/boostorg/context/commit/f2ef6326b6ed

URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/430247

Log:
  devel/boost-libs: unblock aarch64 and sparc64 builds

  - aarch64 requires Clang with new enough integrated assembler
  - sparc64 is no longer supported since we don't split context library
    into a separate package (unlike Debian)

Comment 4 Jan Beich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-06-14 08:24:08 UTC 
sparc64 can probably be unbroken based on https://github.com/openbsd/ports/commit/8495a25bd4e1
