Or maybe teach the unpacker to skip those?

 I think you cannot teach unpacker to skip parts of .tar.XYZ , it pretty much 
always has to unpack the whole thing to get the .tar . Besides, a small 
script in external/boost should be simple and do savings everywhere, and it's 
not like we always use genuine upstream tarballs.
