Should there be some kind of policy specifically for Boost?

Maybe.  What's your proposal?

Explicitly versioning all the Boost packages would be an option.

I was thinking along the lines of limiting it to one upgrade per quarter, preferably after a new branch was created.

Would versioning be a practical option? If all the packages need 5 different versions of boost to be happy, that would be hard to maintain as well.

By the way, FlightCrew is broken too.
