I think this can be considered fixed as of 1.38.0-7, see http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/b/boost1.40/current/changelog#versionversion1.38.0-7 As for the boost-build suggestions, see what Steve M. Robbins replied to my inquiry: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-boost-devel/2009-October/002304.html So even if the latter is more of a "Won't fix", it's probably good to set the altogether state to fixed.
