Bandwith and time of those with dialup can be saved by compressing Boost
release by BZIP2 compressor (http://sources.redhat.com/bzip2/).
For example boost_1_29_0.tar.gz has size 5 272 kB, tared and compressed by
bzip2 size is 4 282 kB (down to 81%).
Boost size will grow (Spirit lib has over 600kB) and bzip2 can reduce the
growth a bit. Bzip2 is available on many platforms, free to use, stable and
quite used.
