I disagree.

Thats wrong. The plugins of the platform need to packaged separately and
thus only those plugin package(s) would have a dependecy on boost. Apart
from that its (IIRC) just 2 boost libs that are installed and I think
quite some users might have installed them anyway. 

And we can't do anything about stupid packagers that stuff everything
into 1 big package. But that was always the case.

Uhm, what exactly is wrong with not having time to look into the
problems? And it might actually be that its just a problem of declaring
teamwork to need boost 1.34 and not being buildable with 1.33.1

Anyway, this is not the place to discuss this.
