Re: [boost] CMake minimum version to support

Assuming that installing/updating Cmake is easy, I would suggest that we fix the Cmake requirement at the most recent version of CMake released at the time of the Boost release date.

Including instructions on how to update CMake for popular platforms in the Boost 'how-to-install' instructions would be really helpful - and fend off moaners.

Unfortunately, Boost is widely used on unpopular platforms where acquiring the latest CMake might not be as easy (e.g. non-x86, non-Linux UNIX.) Although as Alexander pointed out, using CMake is "optional" at this point because there's always b2, so we might be able to get away with it.
