http://synopsis.fresco.org/issues/bug138
did add and correct options for wave and filesystem.
Since the config-time handling is not strictly related to bug138, perhaps
create a different bug 'boost configury' or the like, which handles the
needed cases for the boost libs we're using. I'll drop the config parts
off that patch then.
Unless stefan beats us by applying the python bits while he takes care
of the wave- and filesystem config improvements.. :)
