New description:
The wrapper port serves no good purpose, its only function is breaking
various consumers of Boost libs.
Just another example: https://github.com/NickvisionApps/libnick/issues/50
And one more: https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/25855
And we got yet more in ports tree.
These errors never show up on CI or buildbots, for obvious reasons, but
the current set-up is wrong. It wastes time on debugging and then forces
to add per-port hacks via `conflicts_build`.
