Correct. But they are in the boost::core library along with other files which do have dependencies. Therefore as boost::config depends on boost::core for only those two files, boost::config gets all the dependencies of boost::core transitively.

Sorry, but there is no Boost core library other than what you have chosen to define - one could just as easily place those two files as part of Boost.Config and break the dependency that way. Just saying...
Do you have an opinion on the original change? The only contentious part of it seems to be dropping Visual C++ 7.0.
