My understanding of the license is that you are allowed to do whatever
you like with compiled boost code, thanks to the following: "[you must
do something] unless such copies or derivative works are solely in the
form of machine-executable object code generated by a source language
processor".

As always, you should run such things by your company's lawyers, however.
