OK, boost-1.53 is now in svn.

I have again test re-built recent KDE updated packages that use boost:
akonadi
kdelibs4
nepomuk-core
kdepimlibs4
kate

and these all install and kate appears to be fine.

I have again re-built libreoffice with boost-1.53 and also tested calc, 
impress, draw and write briefly in real use cases and see no problems.

There are still some test issues with gnuradio, but these can be fixed 
later with updates.

libyui now builds with a patch from upstream git thanks to anaselli, 
however this is not yet in svn.

So, as far as I am concerned all issues have been dealt with and I have 
tested as much as my limited resources of time and build system will allow.

I now pass it to admins to make a final decision ;)
