It's not quite that easy.  One of two things has to happen first.
Either libcurl has to replace avhttp or I have to write a temporary
FindAvhttp.cmake file until libcurl has been fully tested.  By fully
tested I mean packaged and installed on systems not built and installed
from source.  I would rather not write FindAvhttp.cmake.  I think the
libcurl testing is getting close to complete.  Once that is done, I will
remove the boost build code and set the minimum boost version to 1.55.
