This is probably important to clarify in the Getting Started documentation.
This is especially true because the headers still include the libboost*
version by default in Visual Studio builds, and debug versions of those
if you are building debug. None of these are built if you follow the
steps in the Getting Started document. So, by default, following that
doc won't get you a usable setup.
