Ihave found that a little patch to Boost.System could make it header-only. It seems that Beman has already tried it, but there are some errors. I'd like to make Boost.System available for header-only use, but IIRC

Please, could you point me to which libraries are you referring to? Also, I'd like to see a Boost guideline worked out for how to make libraries header only without dumping vast numbers of names for operating system headers into the global namespace.
I recognize that it could be difficult for libraries as Boost.Thread or Boost.FileSystem, but I don't think Boost.System will be on this case as its dependency are really minor, isn't it? Could you explain more deeply the problem you want to avoid? Best, Vicente
