I edited my local version.ini to be

tags =
branches =
tarballs = 1.67.0;1.69.0;1.71.0;1.76.0
defaulttarget = 1.76.0
# new download site for boost. .7z is the most compact form
# .tar.bz2, .tar.gz, and .zip also available
tarballUrl = https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/${VERSION}/source/boost_${VERSION_MAJOR}_${VERSION_MINOR}_${VERSION_PATCH_LEVEL}.7z
tarballInstallSrc=boost_${VERSION_MAJOR}_${VERSION_MINOR}_${VERSION_PATCH_LEVEL}

and deleted version-1_67.ini.

And tried to follow the instructions in kdiff3's INSTALL.

craft png2ico failed:
   Failed to find png2ico:
   Craft was unable to find png2ico

But craft kdiff3 said it succeeded.  The program runs, though there are some weird blank entries displayed on the difference report.
Also, version.ini has been reverted to the master branch and version-1_67.ini restored; I made my changes on a different branch.  It's odd: the build transcripts only show boost 1.76 being downloaded and built.

There is no sign of my existing boost library being used.
