I'm used to doing a man -s 3 srqt and getting linker info ...

SQRT(3)                                             Linux Programmer's Manual

NAME
       sqrt, sqrtf, sqrtl - square root function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       double sqrt(double x);
       float sqrtf(float x);
       long double sqrtl(long double x);

       Link with -lm.

When I go to the boost::regex docs (https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/libs/regex/doc/html/index.html) there is no such information: Link with -lboost_regex
I think this is an oversight that should be corrected.

Even better, submit a PR into the boostorg/regex project fixing the documentation. :)
