Zip format has a mechanism to handle text-file format
differences.  Unfortunately, source files are marked
as binary in boost .zip archives.  You can still automatically
convert the files using Info-zip -aa option

% unzip -aa boost_all.zip

This will likely damage graphics file though.

It would be better if boost_all.zip would have .cpp
and .hpp files marked as text so that unzip -a boost_all.zip
handles all files correctly.  Using Info-zip, this
can be achieved by using -l option when addding text files.
