Well, this thread moved away from the original command line option
topic, so even though this is certainly a JHWH question:

Didn't you want to move to CMake? Me for one, I would really
appreciate it since meanwhile we do almost everything with CMake and
boost is the only library left with an own solution, which makes it
quite hard to create builds each time a new (or patched) version
appears.
Besides, it would probably integrate nicer in our projects.
Of course these are not really smashing good arguments but still...
isn't it worth considering?

Cheers,
Stephan
