Right, I went through all of that already.  In fact, you can't error out
in a variant either as they are processed
any time the port is parsed as in lint, info, etc.

So the key is to only delete the dependency in a first check and then
error out in a phase based check later.  This
prevents attempting to build boost as a dependency unless the python
support is present but if it is the dependency
remains and everything proceeds as it should.

Here's the patch that I propose to commit which tests out in the three cases

    * no boost installed/active (error)
    * boost installed active but no python support (error)
    * boost installed active with python support (no error)


Thanks for your suggestions

Dave
