[Boost-users] Auto-linking + serious Xplatform dev => mutually exclusive?

Hi,
 
For serious cross-platform development, have boost users found the
auto-linking to be useful? I think it only works on Windows, so if
you're doing any serious cross-platform development, the feature isn't
really that useful. 
 
Am I missing something? Is this only useful on Windows? I'd love for it
to work in general, but I think I have to replicate the logic in my
build system which means I shouldn't really use it on Windows (since my
logic will already be there).
 
Of course, thats not to say that the feature isn't generally useful. If
I was a Visual C++ developer only, I'd use it, no questions asked.
 
Thanks,

Sohail
