Comment:
Right now, I think this would work, and I'm open to making this change.
But note that previously we switched from using MacPorts boost to using
the internal boost because the developers of boost do not believe in
backward compatibility, and an update of MacPorts boost caused mongodb to
no longer build (#35118), and I'm virtually certain that a future version
of boost will break mongodb again. But if and when that happens, we can go
back to using the internal boost again.
