No, it was not. Lacking any posted schedule, I did not expect final
release this weekend. To clarify, original schedule on http://www.boost.org/development/index.html
has two weeks between beta and release. In fact, beta was released on April 24, with
final release on May 3 -- which is considerably shorter.

I'll work on a patch, so that you can apply it separately, soonish.
