    I don't know. Maybe not. But HDD space is this days cheap unlike one's 
time so it seems simpler to build Boost once (every 3 months) entirely and 
then never to worry whether I have the needed binaries.

    Yes. It did help.

    It is however a bit surprising as I think it should not help. I don't 
think /Za changes ABI. I still think that there is some other kind of error 
there but I am not as sure now. :)

    Another thing is that somehow less libraries where produced. But still 
it works now.
