I would say that Troy may be really busy and unable to get everything
updated. If someone from the community wants to put the time into getting
all the upstream patches put into a new Boost-CMake release then that would
be great. Cloning from Gitorious is quite easy. Just point to another repo
to get the newer boost. I don't think the Boost-CMake was ever "Officially"
supported by the Boost devs but more "put up with".
