    Bug 799594 - GnuCash 5.11 fails to build with boost 1.88
    
    Boost Process 1.88 defaults to the new V2 API introduced in Boost
    1.81. https://repology.org/project/boost/versions shows that distro
    support for boost 1.81 and later is spotty at best so we won't be able
    to migrate to v2 until that improves.
