Yeah, I think that's possible. So I'm going to:

1. put new header to boost/detail
2. put new source to libs/detail/utf
3. #include new source in program_options.

Objections? As I understood, Robert does not mind to have this issue handed to 
me. Robert, would you want me to change serialization to include the file, 
too?
