Temporarily, as I wanted to get out mostly-working Boost 1.50 out.  I'll
look at re-enabling Python 3 this week, but I'm thinking that I'll
actually build it only after the merge.  I'd need to do so anyway, and
presumably that would impact ABIs of boost-python3, so there's no value
in having the build in a tag.

I put in Python 3 support at a user request, as it seems sensible to me
to support both Python versions, and it was reasonably easy to put the
support in.  It is quite possible there are no direct users in Fedora
itself.

I'm thinking the end of this week.  This gives about a week for fixes
and rebuilds before Alpha.

Anyone knows if there is a way to address maintainers of packages
dependent on boost?  That's about 100 packages that depend on runtime
libraries, and then those that have Boost as BR.  I guess I may need to
crawl package database.  Apparently, without direct pings, people won't
rebuild the client packages.

Thanks,
