Description:
This package version update brings two new libraries:
Fiber [1] (Currently Broken)
Framework for userland-threads/fibers, from Oliver Kowalke.
QVM [2]
Boost QVM is a generic library for working with quaternions, vectors
and matrices of static size with the emphasis on 2, 3 and 4-dimensional
operations needed in graphics, video games and simulation applications,
from Emil Dotchevski.
More information about the 1.62.0 release (bug fixes, etc), can be found here [3].

Boost.Context Fix:
- The Boost.Coroutine2 lib requires Boost.Context to be compiled using the
standard C++14. [1]

Major fixes:
- The "Select Boost Options" was improved:
- In previous versions, it was possible to unselect both Shared and Static
options, so that there would be nothing to be built. This was solved by
creating a choice menu "Compile Boost libraries".
- A new choice menu was also created for Boost Run-time linkage called
"Selects Boost Run-time linkage", which is used to select the C and C++
runtime. This choice menu obeys to the required restrictions by boost
options [1].
- Fixed the invalid combination where boost shared version could be linked
to C and C++ static runtime. This is not allowed by the boost builder.
- Added new menu where a Boost building variant can be chosen from 3 options:
- Release: The optimized version for daily use.
- Debug: The debugging version, for testing purposes.
- Profiling: The profiling version for evaluation purposes.
- Improved options help descriptions.
Minor fixes:
- Makefile Version was bumped from 6 to 8 because the previous update [2] did
not bumped the value acordingly to the submission rules.
- Removed stuff that was not doing anything: "-sBUILD=release"
- Changed builder executable from "bjam" to "b2" which is the correct caller:
- "bjam" is the old name and exists only for compatibility purposes.

Major fixes:
- Due to incompatibility issues with other packages which depend upon boost
libraries being built with system names (without name tags):
- multi-thread support is now active by default.
- boost libraries do not have name tags by default.
- Added "Use tagged names." options
- This option provides access to Single threaded option and Debug option.
- The use of name tags is required to build the debug and single threaded
versions.
Minor fixes (proposed by Thess):
- "Compile Static Libraries" is active by default
- "Use shared version of C and C++ runtimes for shared libraries" is now active
by default
- Several dependency notation fixes

Minor fixes:
- CoRoutine2 selector requires that a GCC v5 compiler or better is selected
- coroutine2 requires C++14
- The Makefile was not alowing the libraries to be compiled with both
statically and shared, at the same time. There are now two seperate options,
allowing to select which version is wanted.
- The Makefile was also not allowing to compile both single thread and multi-
thread versions. Again, two seperate options now exist.
- There is also the option to build another set of libraries with debug support
which is good for development.
- These options are important for those who whish to build an OpenWRT SDK.

Minor Fixes:
- Fixed bug related to Python 3.5 support. [1]
- "--without-python3" was being issued when it should only be
"--without-python".
- "--without-python" is only issued in the event of neither Python 3.5
support neither Python 2.7 support is requested.
- Fixed an old bug related to coroutine2 support (added selector).
- "--without-coroutin2" was not being issued, even when boost-coroutine was
not selected. Because of that, the boost building system was compiling
boost- coroutine and all of its dependencies.
- Added selector for boost-graph-parallel.

Major Updates
- Added support for Python 3.5.
- Removed the restriction for the target MPC85xx when using uclibc [1].
- No longer required since uclibc was removed from trunk.
- Added option to force static compilation.
- Added option to force linking statically to the C++ standard library and compiler runtime support libraries.
- Added option to disable multithreading support. It can be helpfull for those who wish to fully optimise their code.
- Some boost libraries will require multithreading to be active. For those, this option is active as a requirement.
Minor Updates
- Added -fPIC to CFLags [2].
- python requires independent position code when statically compiling.

This commit updates Boost to version 1.59, released in the 13th of August of 2015 [1].
- The new version adds two new template libraries, Convert [2] and CoRoutine2 [3].
- [Warning]-> CoRoutine2 library absolutly requires a C++14 compiler.
- patch 001-mips-options-fix.patch was removed, since it is already incorporated upstream.

This update solves two issues:
1) Incompatibility with the combination of using Target mpc85xx and uclibc at the same time[1].
- For now, Boost is disabled when the respective combination is detected.
2) The selection of Boost.Locale was not activating the build with full language support.

When only boost is selected without any specific boost library no *.so
file will be build and the InstallDev part is failing. Instead of
checking if there is a lib directory just try to copy the libs and do
not fail in case of an error.

Added MIPS (o32 and 64 abi) and Arm (aapcs abi) support. Everything else defaults to sysv.
Added Boost.Locale iconv dependency
- uCLibc does not implement monetary.h and because of that boost.locale.posix is off. For everything else it is on.
- For details check here: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_57_0/libs/locale/doc/html/building_boost_locale.html
Added Boost.Context, Boost.Container, Boost.Coroutine and Boost.Log
