boost-eigen branch doesn't build on OSX 10.7, 10.9 (10.8 untested)

[shelhamer]

Post #97 boost-eigen does not build on OSX 10.9 (< 10.9 is untested) because of an odd CUDA and boost conflict. See #97 (comment).

Ideally, this will be fixed before the integration to master.

Potential fix: split cpp/cu layer implementations. Also a step toward a cpu-only build of Caffe. (Clarification: Caffe works fine in cpu-only mode now, but the cuda libraries are still needed for build.)

splitting caffe into cpp/cu parts would be a incredibly helpful feature. especially with all the cuda issues in Mavericks 10.9, it would be nice to be able to build caffe without cuda support.

@shelhamer it doesn't build in OSX 10.7 either

While #152 was hoped to fix this, it does not. However, it makes #3 easier, which would be a reasonable workaround.

While this isn't yet solved, it is understood and documented at the crucial PR #165 so I'm closing this to focus the conversation.
