Fantastic that it works so simply, thanks for the report.  If I remember 
correctly I tweaked the CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME from "Boost" to "Boost C++ 
Libraries" to get a prettier name on OSX and windows installer 
executables.  There must some subtlety of cpack that I don't get.  If 
any cpack experts want to look at this, your patches are welcome.  For 
now I'm going to just switch it back to "Boost", as Doug had set it...
