  Um, as parts of Boost are becoming parts of the C++ libstdc++ 
library, this isn't accurate. We have very light usage of boost, mostly 
just a few typedefs and thread support. It would be entirely possible to 
use glib instead, but you'll have the same problems on win32 as you do 
with Boost. I do find boost drives me crazy sometimes when porting 
Gnash, bjam truly sucks as a build system, and boost barely cross compiles.
