Comment:
The current Boost.Config has been changed to include <cstddef> rather than
<utility> which cuts down the platform #includes somewhat.
Other than that, I don't see how we can streamline this: the std lib and
platform feature detection code has to include a certain number of
platform headers to work. I also note that the biggest pull-in of headers
in your example comes from <memory>, are you really suggesting that
shared_ptr could live without that #include?
Sorry, but I don't see this as a bug.
