Thank you!

For the ports like cgal where the error(s) result from interaction between boost
and Qt moc there are a few workarounds, but not proper fix yet (it seems):
 - a cgal specific one:
http://cgal-discuss.949826.n4.nabble.com/PATCH-prevent-Qt-s-moc-from-choking-on-BOOST-JOIN-td4081602.html
- more general:
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-22829

The general theme is to use Q_MOC_RUN to guard against headers that moc doesn't
grok.
