Boost turns out to be an important package.  The fallout from this is
412 newly failed builds on mips64el:

  http://hydra.gnu.org/eval/105333#tabs-now-fail
  http://hydra.gnu.org/eval/105355?compare=105351#tabs-now-fail

If we can't fix this soon, I think we should revert the boost update.
What do you think?
