I don't think Boost, are any part of it, should _require_ an install
procedure.  It should be possible for any user to just take the actual
header and source files and use any build system s/he has.

Sorry to interrupt but what do you mean here? Any non-trivial library of source code needs to be built. Something sufficiently complex will be tied to a build system. You're not making any sense to me... Are you suggesting that all of boost source should be compiled by #include directives?! I must've missed some context in this discussion.
