Not that I know of.   I just now went to this page:

http://gitorious.org/~straszheim/boost/cmake/commits/1.40.0

click the 'download as .tar.gz' on the right, and the download started 
immediately.  It appears that the site doesn't generate tarballs until 
they're requested, and this can take a while depending on load.  Or 
maybe there is some kind of http proxying issue on your end?

You have the option to clone the archive and generate one yourself;  I 
just did this, and put the tarball here;

I've called it boost-1.40.0.cmake0.tar.gz, this corresponds to the tag 
1.40.0.cmake0, which I've pushed to the git repo.  So we'll call this 
the zeroth 'release' of the cmake build for boost v. 1.40.0;  future 
bugfix releases of 1.40.0 will increment the N of cmakeN, get tagged and 
tarballed like this.
