[Rd] Linking to the BH package introduces CRAN warnings

[kaveh]

Dear Romain,



                /You’re kind of out of luck. These functions are both:
                  - used by the boost headers
                  - forbidden by R, well at least forbidden by CRAN
                /

//

Thanks for conforming my earlier fears. Since I only use
this header and would like my package to eventually be
on CRAN, I was thinking of bypassing BH and just putting
these headers in the /inst directory and modifying them
to remove the offending calls. I was wondering what your
view on this is. Or perhaps there is a simpler alternative?

Thanks in advance,
