I worry a little about this arrangement.  I don't want to slow down
Spirit development, but it seems likely that fixes will sometimes want
to be committed to the Boost CVS by Boost developers (say, when a
backwards-incompatible change in another library breaks some part of
Spirit).  Maybe we should just give all of your core developers CVS
access to Boost...?
