Failure to compile EQEmu on Slackware 14.2

Using Boost version 1.75.0 and Cmake version 3.5.2.

This is what I see if I don't add in the aforementioned modification.

CMake Warning (dev) at /usr/local/lib/cmake/Boost-1.75.0/BoostConfig.cmake:240 (if):
  Policy CMP0057 is not set: Support new IN_LIST if() operator.  Run "cmake
  --help-policy CMP0057" for policy details.  Use the cmake_policy command to
  set the policy and suppress this warning.

  IN_LIST will be interpreted as an operator when the policy is set to NEW.
  Since the policy is not set the OLD behavior will be used.

I don't believe it appeared on the Slackware 14.2 stock version of cmake (approximately version 3.1? from memory), but I upgraded cmake in the process of trying to get the compilation to work & then had to solve the above issue.



Additionally (and far less critically as they're only warnings, but may become an issue in the future), I saw a fair number of these during the compile. I'm pretty sure they didn't occur when I tried with an older version of Boost initially.
