Thanks for correcting the link address.

I have not performed any such magic yet. I am not entirely sure how I would go about this but guess it would involve hacking the eups code (which I am not familiar with).

Good advice. I added this as a second file (named: boost-1.55.0.1+2 build.log) to:
https://gist.github.com/fc55c9994d13e6355650 <https://gist.github.com/fc55c9994d13e6355650>
Based on this log it seems as though there is a problem with a missing pyconfig.h file. Note that I am using Enthought Canopy as my python distribution rather than Anaconda. 

I will dig into this a git more,

Thanks,
Will
