The 1.40.0 release of boost doesn't come with a configure script
anymore. Now it's time to run

./bootstrap.sh --prefix=$PREFIX
./bjam
./bjam install

No, the -j option for bjam doesn't work reliably here. And no, I don't
know why they are doing this to mankind. But there _is_ something good
about this release. They didn't screw up the paths in the include
directory during the installation.

Cheers,

    Hendrik
