The tar files are created on a Windows system like this:

   set cvs preferences to export with UNIX-style line ends
   cvs -z9 export -r Version_1_31_0 boost
   tar cfz boost_1_31_0.tar.gz boost_1_31_0

Suggestions for improvement welcome. Perhaps the tar could be run under
bash, which allows more twiddling of permissions, IIRC.
