Comment (by michaelld):

 One major ABI naming change: the Boost::Python library is renamed to
 include the major.minor Python version but with no "." ... so, "27" for
 Python 2.7 and "36" for Python 3.6 (for 2.,7 was "libboost_python-
 mt.dylib" is now "libboost_python27-mt.dylib"). Not sure if this is a
 change from 1.67.0 or 1.66.0 ... but it's important since any project
 using CMake to find Boost must now specify "python27" or "python36" as a
 component to look for, not just "python" or "python2" or "python3";
 guessing other build systems will be impacted as well.
