[pkg-boost-devel] Bug#429533: Bug#429533: Bug#429533: dev package changes and its severity

Which does not mean it is correct for libboost-*-dev to silently
change its interface (.so library naming).

This description sounds more relevant for cross-platform development
and other things, but isn't it possible to provide a saner default for
gcc/libc system.s

Why not just provide -pthread version (-mt) per default and provide
-st version for people who really care?
