Subject: [boost] [system] Header-only Boost.System by default ?

Dear Boost,
Is there any reason why Boost system couldn't be set to be header only
by default ?
Defining both macros allows it :
 - BOOST_SYSTEM_NO_DEPRECATED
 - BOOST_ERROR_CODE_HEADER_ONLY
This ease, speeds up and reduces binary size greatly, that it's sad that
non-aware Boost User needs to link to some dll/so/dylib of Boost.System
per default.
It has been in many releases of Boost, wouldn't it be good to set it to
be the default for a next release ?
Cheers,
