Version: 2.6.3-1

adolc fails to cross build from source, because it uses a broken,
outdated, embedded copy of AX_BOOST_BASE (recorded in
autoconf/ax_boost_base.m4). The actual problem is reported as #872256
and affects adolc due to embeddeding an outdated version. Please remove
the embedded copy or update it and register ist at
https://wiki.debian.org/EmbeddedCodeCopies.

This bug report comes without a patch, because the actual bug is already
fixed at the source. It might be sufficient to add
autoconf/ax_boost_base.m4 to debian/clean to fix this bug.
