 In generate_canonical.hpp there is:

 {{{
 #include <boost/math/special_functions.hpp>
 }}}

 Which is a rather heavyweight #include as it brings in almost all of
 Boost.Math.  Furthermore, a quick grep suggests that nothing from there is
 actually used by Boost.Random anyway?

 Suggest this #include is removed.
