I'm not convinced the removal of gil/version.hpp would cause a problem. 
I suppose the policy of not adding "breaking changes" is meant to 
protect downstream (dependent) boost components from breaking so close 
to the release. In case of Boost.GIL, I don't believe there are any such 
components in Boost, so I think we'd be safe. (We may scan the whole 
Boost superproject for such an include statement, just to be sure.)

I'd prefer a merge as it's much simpler, of course. But if we can't, 
well, cherry-pick we will. :-)

I'm traveling this week (back home tomorrow night), so not sure how fast 
I could do this, so if you want, feel free to do it yourself. Else I'll 
make sure to complete this on Monday.

Best,

Stefan
