adding boost as a dependency

Hi,

How do people feel about adding Boost as a dependency? I'd like to make some of boost::math's statistical functions available to the scripting language.

Not good. :slight_smile:

In the future we'll have support for dynamically loaded plugins. You
could then write one that links with Boost for providing that
functionality, without that we'd need to link Bro itself against it.

Cool, that sounds like a good idea, thanks.
