I think this is fair. If I were you, I may think about to change the
last paragraph to:
| Most such references may be found by looking either in
| /usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/examples or in
| /usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/HTML. In rare cases, you may need to

Adding any example files to libboost-doc/examples is quite easy with
debhelper anyway. Also, this is something upstream should ensure. So
fixing it via upstream install script is even better.
