No matter the plan there are some caveats:
1. Some platforms require some libraries to be put in separate DLLs. 2. You have to exclude the driver files from Boost-Test, since each includes a "main" function. (And if you actually are doing testing, then you know that you can include at most one driver file.)
Besides the caveats, you can just dump all the mandatory source code into your IDE's project file (or make file) and don't worry Boost-Build.
It isn't true. Some libraries need specific compiler/linker options on specific platforms.
OK as far as I know.
Not to mention that the test library has several (I think) source files containing main() and you can't just link them all together indiscriminately.
