3103	Allow using libraries without separately compiling them	Ulrich Eckhardt		"Currently, there are two types of libraries in Boost, one where the full implementation is inline (often templates) and others which require a separately compiled library. This feature request is about providing a third one, where the library's code is provided via include files but is not inline.

There already is an implementation based on 1.35 and 1.36 in the [https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/sandbox/compile-in-place sandbox], including a readme that explains the motives for this feature a bit further and example code. A port of 1.37 is also in work there, but not finished. Later revisions and trunk haven't been started yet for lack of time.
