Good question. Yes and no. Yes, because you can build with
Boost.Geometry primitives. No because it is not available as a standard
function and it is not trivial to build yourself.
I'll have a look, have done this at least twice before, if one of them
was with (a predecessor of) Boost.Geometry it might be of help.
