Even if there isn't one, mixing debug and release components is quite common 
in large projects when debugging, so the complaint is valid.

That said, I do not find how BOOST_CB_ENABLE_DEBUG depends on _DEBUG or 
NDEBUG, so I assume this macro should be defined by the user explicitly and is 
not defined by default in any kind of build. If my observation is true I would 
consider this problem solved.
