I guess different camps have different concerns.  We put boost files in the
pch all the time, since they play so nicely.  Where we run into problems is
with the polluting headers, like <windows.h>, <mfc.h>, and <atl.h>.  Of
course, we put those into the pch, too; we just have work around the ensuing
problems.
