Hello,
The recent development to support different LIBRARY_DIR for Boost have
made the new cache entries appear in the default cache.
I have searched in the code history of the FindBoost.cmake file to find
why the old Boost_LIBRARY_DIR was "marked" as advanced while the new
ones do not, ... and I failed.
Especially, I couldn't find any mark_as_advanced(Boost_LIBRARY_DIR) that
was not reported to the new variables
I am guessing either there is something weird, a bug elsewhere or I'm
most likely missing something.
If someone is able to find the explanation it would be nice.
Anyway, here is a patch that marks the new variables as advanced.
But, depending on the answer to my history related interrogation it may
not be the best patch to fix the issue.
Sylvain
