Thank you for your pull request. Currently we do not plan to support vcpkg in the MacOS build pipeline. Will keep it in draft for future discussion and review.

The current build system guarantees that each version of BOINC is built for MacOS with a specific versions of all the dependencies. Since vcpkg could result in the MacOS Manager being built with different versions of dependencies, I would no longer be willing to support BOINC because of the added difficulty in debugging bug reports from the field.
