The comedi_soft_calibrate code uses Boost.  It should be reasonably 
straightforward to add a configure option to disable building 
comedi_soft_calibrate and so remove the dependency on Boost.  Let's see 
what Frank thinks.  OTOH, extracting Boost from comedi_soft_calibrate 
would require a bit of a rewrite!

Are there any particular problems with the dependency on Boost?  It 
depends on other libraries too, such as GSL (though the configure script 
does not currently test for GSL).
