Hatem Helal commented on ARROW-6096:
------------------------------------
I'd like to spend sometime understanding whether we can conditionally link with
boost regex only for gcc < 4.9. I think that might satisfy my need (minimal
dependency on boost) while keeping python wheels working on manylinux1.
Depending how that looks, I may just go with [~npr]'s suggestion as its useful
to incorporate this requirement.

> There appears to be only one place where the boost regex library is used:
> [cpp/src/parquet/metadata.cc|https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/eb73b962e42b5ae6983bf026ebf825f1f707e245/cpp/src/parquet/metadata.cc#L32]
> I think this can be replaced by the C++11 regex library.
