As boost relies on zlib etc, which is by default a dynamic-build, why we don't need to copy the ospackages stuff?

Research direction

Compare that behavior with the issue's zlib and dynamic-build concern; the work is complete when the dependency-handling rationale is established and any required correction or documentation is identified.
