a) I perused the python library source code and it includes only couple of boost header files. So it's not really dependent on the rest of boost at all. Not a good or bad thing - just an observation.
That's what boostdep is for. "boostdep python" will tell you what it includes.

very good - I didn't think of that. I guess it pretty well proves taht I was wrong in thinking that python could be decoupled from other boost source code. So it seems that this "independence" really just means making the bjam files not dependent on the boost root ones. I'm not sure that I see the point to or the value in this. But it still seems to me that it doesn't change anything. Robert Ramey
