+$ make CC=gcc-4.8 CXX=g++-4.8 CFLAGS=-O3 CXXFLAGS=-O3 -j 4
-The BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX variable allows you to specify the optional
-Boost library suffix. For example, if your Boost library names are
-in the libboost_regex-gcc41-mt-d.so format, then you will need to
-set BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX to -gcc41-mt-d.

-The BOOST_LINK_SYSTEM variable allows you to specify whether the
-Boost system library should be explicitly linked to which may be
-required by newer linkers. The valid values are 'y' (default) and
-'n'.
+The EXTERNAL_LIBCUTL variable allows you to use an external build
+of libcutl, for example, if you already have this library installed.
+The valid values are 'n' (default) and 'y'.
