Comment(by anonymous):

 Another comment about this file, while at it.

 What this file does is very fragile.  It has the potential to break with
 any unforeseen configuration.  Therefore, I would suggest to add a
 configuration macro for the user to be able to turn it off easily.  If I
 understood it correctly, it is only a compile-time reduction feature,
 certainly not worth some big trouble.

 The way we have to workaround this problem currently is to ship a fixed
 copy of this file, with some appropriate Boost version detection.  This is
 not really nice.
