[CM] Grace and Fomus on F 14

[David Psenicka]

The error message has to do with Boost's iostream library which changed
quite a bit with version 1.44 (including the API, which would cause an
undefined symbol error if fomus is linking with the wrong library
version)...  I think recompiling with the correct Boost library headers
should fix the problem.  The recent fomus release should compile with
Boost versions before or after 1.44 (though I haven't tested 1.46 yet).
I'll try compiling with boost 1.44 on my machine and see if I run into
any problems.
