This looks very good. Sadly I could not yet test it here, as I'm on gentoo 
linux and the most recent version of cctbx there is 2010.03.29.2334 [1]. I've 
tried to adapt the ebuild to the most recent release, but as gentoo unbundles 
boost (by policy and for good reasons [2]), I'm stuck with outdated patches 
[3] to the SConsscripts of cctbx.
