required all that space because it was building static/shared,
single-thread/multi-threaded, and debug/production versions of the
libraries - as well as every combination of those. Now we build
only the shared, multi-threaded, production version, which needs
only 8 MB. The headers account for the other 50 MB, so it might be
worthwhile to split them off into a separate package (in order to
reduce the runtime closure of applications that use Boost, such as
KDE).
* Removed some Boost versions that aren't used anymore.

Also added support for expat library (used by the graph library). This package
should probably be built on the compile farm because it takes quite a while to
complete, even on a fast machine. Having pre-built binaries would be very nice.
