[Bf-committers] Blender issues on Windows

[Erwin Coumans]

An alternative to avoid huge libraries is to add cmake/scons support
 to build BOOST from source, at least for Windows.

Just copy the BOOST source code in blender/extern for example.
Of course this can stay pure optional,
so it will be ignored if you use precompiled libraries.
