/**
 * @class   vtkBoostBiconnectedComponents
 * @brief   Find the biconnected components of a graph
 *
 *
 * The biconnected components of a graph are maximal regions of the graph where
 * the removal of any single vertex from the region will not disconnect the
 * graph.  Every edge belongs to exactly one biconnected component.  The
 * biconnected component of each edge is given in the edge array named
 * "biconnected component".  The biconnected component of each vertex is also
 * given in the vertex array named "biconnected component".  Cut vertices (or
 * articulation points) belong to multiple biconnected components, and break
 * the graph apart if removed.  These are indicated by assigning a component
 * value of -1.  To get the biconnected components that a cut vertex belongs
 * to, traverse its edge list and collect the distinct component ids for its
 * incident edges.
 *
 * Self-loop edges that start and end at the same vertex are not
 * assigned a biconnected component, and are given component id -1.
 *
 * @warning
 * The boost graph bindings currently only support boost version 1.33.1.
 * There are apparently backwards-compatibility issues with later versions.
