Is Boost.Preprocessor self-sufficient?

Question

I’m thinking about using it Boost.Preprocessorin some project, but I don’t want the whole Boost library to be dependent.

Can I just copy it alone and avoid it? Otherwise, what are its dependencies?

New answer

I just got bcp:

./bcp --list preprocessor --boost=/usr/local/include/boost_1_45_0/ | grep -v preprocessor

no errors found

w / o grep I get something like:

/preprocessor.hpp
//arithmetic.hpp
///add.hpp
///dec.hpp
////div_base.hpp
///div.hpp
///inc.hpp
///mod.hpp
///mul.hpp
boost/preprocessor//sub.hpp
