Before anyone suggests it: while we do have a copy of Boost 1.58 in
stable-phone-overlay, actually using it for libunity-scopes would be an
ABI break if we have any scopes that link directly to boost libraries
themselves (you'd get a little 1.55 and a little 1.58 in the same
address space using the same symbol names).

In the survey I did in December, there were 6 scopes linking to a Boost
library.  Two of those were Javascript scopes, so I suspect the number
would be much higher if I reran the checks today.
