Boost.Bind only includes a reasonably small bit of MPL indirectly via 
boost/ref.hpp. This can be avoided in principle, but it won't result in any 
measurable gains.

boost/utility.hpp doesn't include much, but this header isn't of much use 
anyway. :-)

boost/function.hpp does seem to include the world (3 seconds for a single 
include on my machine), but I'm not sure whether this can be avoided. It's a 
fairly complex component.
