Comment (by gtmalmgren@…):

 @vibes, this may actually be more of an issue with the documentation. I
 ended up figuring it out...

 [[https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/TryModBoost#InstallingModularBoost|modular

 boost specific instructions]] state that this command is necessary:

 {{{
 ./b2 headers
 }}}

 Whereas, the [[http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_59_0/more/getting_started

 /unix-variants.html#or-build-custom-binaries|standard install
 instructions]] do not give that direction.

 My understanding is that modular-boost is the path forward, if that is the
 case, should the standard install instructions be updated?
