how to build non-boost asio without boost

Everyone, I need a header-only version of ASIO for a stripped-down embedded system. I downloaded the latest and greatest asio version 1.4.5 from Chris Kohlkoff's think-asyn.com website. This version is supposedly the "boost-free" version. But I cannot get it to configure without boost. The web page certainly suggests "building" asio boost-free is possible. The release notes do not indicate otherwise. OTOH, the documentation only mentions configuring WITH boost. And, as mentioned in other discussions, the headers are full of #includes for boost files. I tried several obvious variations for configure that all fail, insisting on using boost (which does not exist on my system): ./configure -without-boost ./configure -without-boost ./configure -with-boost=no ./configure -with-boost= Could some kind soul please explain what I am doing wrong? I don't have bcp, but if I did, would that work? Thanks
