Not sure to which of the two suggestions you are replying, but I really don't understand why it should require any work for most of boost (except maybe the PP library) to be consumable as a header unit.
At the moment I have no idea yet how a standard module implementation would work in practice. Trying to use Boost with the Clang (pre-standard) module implementation generally runs into two issues: headers that aren't standalone, and ODR violations (usually caused by inconsistent macro definitions). You also need to mark headers that are included multiple times (as part of file-based PP iteration for example) as "textual", but the standard impl probably won't need it. Someone needs to try it and see, I suppose.
