I agree with you, I however would like to point out that if you stick to
stable libraries within Boost, the upgrade path is not that expensive.

I'm not sure it's reasonable to expect commercial-grade support for an
open source library. Maybe one could think about building a business based
on providing companies with that kind of "boost stable" support.
