I'm just compiling the attached ebuilds now.  boost-build-1.49.0 is exactly boost-build-1.48.0-r1, and boost-1.49.0 removes a single patch from boost-1.48.0-r1 (boost-1.48.0-BOOST_FOREACH.patch seems to have been applied upstream in some form).

I copied all the "files/" from the 1.48.0 versions (except for the patch I mentioned).

Installed fine for me with USE="doc mpi static-libs tools".  I'll report back if I notice any problems.

Patch to remove unnecessary use of 'fchmodat()'.

Found a minor problem where fchmodat() is being used unnecessarily.  Given that AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW does not appear to be implemented on Linux [1], I've recommended to upstream [2] that fchmodat() not be used here.

Package has been bumped long time ago. Closing as fixed
