on windows, the result is installed to c:\boost. I'm not sure it makes a good overlap.
IMHO c:\boost is a very bad choice! Creating driectories directly in the root is never nice, not even on Windows! Why not $PROGRAM_FILES$\boost\ or even better $PROGRAM_FILES$\boost\$VERSION$\ where $VERSION$ is the version of boost and $PROGRAM_FILES$ is what ever path your system tells you when asked with the right Win32 API call? (On my german system that would be C:\Programme) Even for libraries this is IMHO the only "right" location to install too per default. Bertolt
