This is needed for 1.35 if we want the Doxygen documentation of GIL into
Boost. Right now the design guide and tutorial are in libs/gil/doc, but
other resources, such as Doxygen documentation and video tutorial are
links to the ASL web site. Perhaps this is a good solution for 1.35. We
certainly don't want to put everything into Boost - adding the video
will make 1.35 very big.
