I was trying to understand a bit more of boost, in my case, related with 
polygon/geometry stuff.
What I found is that boost have two "libraries" to deal with polygons: The 
boost::polygon (the one that kicad is using) and a more general boost::geometry.

I am probably not 100% correct, maybe someone correct me.
But I looked for the boost::geometry and found they add lots of more features 
now since 1.54 .. that I am explore it now.

I like the idea to split the boost from kicad building, linux users will 
appreciate it ;)
