Forgive me if I'm missing something, but I don't understand why cmake
should look for any particular version, since it isn't a KDE-specific
utility. Some other project might be quite happy with Boost version 0.9 -
why should cmake's FindBoost reject that version? It's surely up to KDE to
define which version is acceptable and test for that (in its own
FindBoost?).
