This issue is not about building boost. The issue is about including boost in a user project (which I guess is the
ultimate goal?). The "CMake" way is to include CMakeLists.txt files hierarchically, thus building
a workspace with all projects needed to build an application.

With the current CMakeLists.txt file for boost, this is not possible (I know, boost-cmake is the proper
place) since NxM projects are created (N=no of boost libs, M=4 st/mt/debug/release)
