First, I would say, there is a need for a better autoconf for boost.  There
has been some interest in scons, and scons also includes some capability
here that might be useful.

I don't think pkg-config is the right tool.  All it is for is to record the
settings that were used to build packages - it doesn't figure them out.  I
don't see how that would help boost.
