* Hard dep upon boost. This sucks for g++-4.1 users.

* Hard dep upon g++-4.1, which isn't available for all archs. This
doesn't even work because there's no guarantee that >=4.1 is being used
even if it's installed.

* || ( ) deps, and hope that if the user has 4.1 installed then they're
using it. Since library implementations aren't runtime switchable, this
will lead to breakages if users upgrade gcc and then remove boost.

None of these are particularly nice...


Newbie idea : g++ and boost both provide virtual/tr1

Newbie question : besides the fact that you would have to rebuild packages if you changed the virtual, is there anything painfully obvious why that would be a bad idea ?

Just a thought :)
