Regarding the licensing issues... maybe an officially "blessed" library 
(libphobos-ext) could be made for all the things that does not go well 
with the boost license then? A bit messy but it would open up access to 
a great number of libs with a default dmd + phobos + phobos-ext 
installation.

I guess BSD/MIT/lgpl etc. licenses are permissive enough for almost 
every case anyway.
