The whole Boost library is meant to be a stadards breeding site for C++.
Much of its components, including all used by us, will probably be a
part of the C++ standard in the future. So I do not think it is
purposeful, though permited, to include them in distributions.

We also use one more library - GMP, mainly for the BigInteger like
functionality. This library is distributed under LGPL, so downloading
and dynamic linking is the only possibility. In my opinion legal issue
is not a problem here, as is portability. So there is a place for
discussion.
