Official or not, Boost effectively endorses \n as the one true line ending; the release files have names like boost_1_35_0.7z and boost_1_35_0.tar.bz2, no line-ending choice available.
The .zip files have \r\n line endings.
Beman pointed out the 7z files do as well. My bad. I entered a trac issue; the downloads page on the website should probably embellish "Platform independent" with "(\r\n line endings)" and "(\n line endings)".
