+-# 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
