 Replying to [comment:9 michaelld]:
 > The best solution I've been able to come up with -- and, this is
 imperfect -- is to use the current "boost_169" port or create some more
 recent version such as "boost_172" as the dependency instead of "boost" on
 -all- dependent ports. [...]

 Makes sense Michael, thanks for the info!

 Given the lack of backward-compatibility between boost releases, multiple
 version-specific ports make perfect sense. That's arguably better than
 being limited to a single, older release.

 And please let me know if there's anything I can do to assist,
 particularly building and testing of dependent ports.
