Not sure how this would work. BoostVersion.cmake and default.cmake are not 
generated, they are just copies to enable libraries to stand alone. 
dependencies.cmake is generated, but you need all of Boost to generate it, 
so it's much easier to do that as part of a build process that is applied to 
the full superproject.
