Good question. Something like the full story can be found at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736687 . In short, that include
was added because of a bug identified in jralls's build environment: his
boost/variant.hpp didn't include the file, so there was a compilation issue
which was fixed by including it ourselves. My version built properly
without the include, and we're using the same boost version: 1.56.0. Since
we target 1.48, perhaps I should get that version of boost to make sure to
avoid this type of thing. Of course, boost 1.56.0 *is* freely available :-).
