I am using the stuff ripped from boost_1_31_0.tar.gz, the v2 stuff.
I tried to access sf.net CVS but there seems to be a problem:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous_at_cvs.sourceforge.n et:/cvsroot/boost co boost
can't create temporary directory /tmp/cvs-serv24024
Permission denied

There is no snapshot download available, isn't it?

I am not scared at all. Your 'new' solution even looks elegant to me.
However, my version of Boost.Build v2 does not recognise the <source>.
Is this only in CVS?
