There are dozens of libraries that doesn't concern to boost. I see no reasons for boost to explicitly support neither windows nor other external libraries that violates rules for standard integrity. It's my IMHO.
NOMINMAX is a windows stuff, so just use it in you project, that's all.
I wasn't suggesting that boost do anything...but Dave gets upset when I dis Microsoft for being lazy or foolish, or just plain stupid.
