Note that this does not mean that there will be no such common directory in users' setups. The equivalent of 'make install' or package installation can (and I'm sure will, at least for some time) form the boost directory with all public headers. The location of this directory is system-specific.
Happy New Year :-) Let's assume Windows then. Let's say that the package installer installs libs/this and libs/that into C:\boost-1.57.0, and then does the equivalent of "b2 headers". The header links go into C:\boost-1.57.0\boost, and the user needs to add C:\boost-1.57.0 to the include path. I say that -I C:\boost-1.57.0\include is better and more consistent with expectations.
