I'm sorry I didn't have a chance to look at this sooner.

Parsing dependencies out of the header files is far too heavy-weight
for a find module.  We should memorize the known dependencies as
is done for other find modules that provide imported targets.  If
that is not tractable then the FindBoost module is the wrong place
to solve this problem.

FWIW, I think effort would be better spent working with Boost
folks to get cmake package files provided.  They don't have to
build with CMake to do this.  Qt5 for example builds without
CMake but still provides CMake package files.
