[boost] libraries dependencies

Subject: [boost] libraries dependencies

    I am working on a "yet another" build tool :) and as part of 
performance testing I am doing boost modularization. Boost was chosen 
because I work  with it more then 5 years and it big enough and known to 
me. Modularization of boost 1.34.1 was successful and 31 (not all yet) 
libraries was tested. That was easy. But when I tried to modularize 
boost 1.36.0 I faced circular dependencies that I can't break. Some old 
part of boost that have enormous interheader dependencies I separated in 
/boost/core library(mpl + preprocessor + bind + utility + many small 
.hpp + details). For boost 1.34.1 I decided that throw_exception.hpp 
must reside in /boost/core library. For 1.36.0 I decided to put it in 
/boost/exception because it is natural place for that functionality. But 
  /boost/exception is dependent on /boost/smart_ptr that dependent on 
/boost/exception. And ooops - we have circular dependency. I can place 
both /boost/exception and /boost/smart_ptr into /boost/core but that 
seams really wrong to me. I known that some folks working on CMake build 
system and also need modularize boost.
    So my question is: Is there any plans to do 
refactoring/cleaning/reorganizing/... to make boost have more clean 
inter-libraries dependencies?

Thanx
