Hello (and do not top-post).

If you just need the headers, just copy/use the boost/ directory of the
releases.

BCP is a nice tool in theory, but doesn't do the extraction correctly
for some of the libraries.

It _might_ work for you, but be aware that it tends to fail horribly on
anything that uses the preprocessor. It has failed miserably on MPL for
some.

Sorry for top-posting... Forgot it.. But anyway, copying the directory might fail as well, just because this particular header lib might depend on other libs. In that case you will need to strip the dependencies manually.
