Adding the new option to omit the local boost re-build makes sense in all cases, as it can be defaulted to retain the present behaviour during testing. I have a build cycle of 75 minutes because of the Boost build, after a 'make clean', rather than the ten or so for kicad otehrwise. An alternative approach would be do add a make target between 'make clean' and nothing, which only 'cleans' out the non-Boost parts I suppose Is this patch as to omiting the local kicad build of boost, available via a 'git' branch, that I might test it?
