Might be a bug. On line 641 of FindBoost.cmake, where the _boost_LIBRARIES_SEARCH_DIRS variable is initialized, could you try adding this line and see if that helps?

Actually, I hacked around the issue with the _boost_STATIC_TAG variable because that would break the build anyway...the patch is a simple two-liner from the stock FindBoost.cmake.
If this does fix the problem and you'd like a workaround for the problem until a fix can be released (or if this doesn't help at all) you can likely use BOOST_ROOT or BOOST_LIBRARYDIR as a CMake variable or environment variable.
Yeah, I set BOOST_ROOT in CMake and along with the _boost_STATIC_TAG fix, that did the trick.
Also, for whatever reason, FindBoost does not use the include path detected for the headers as a hint for finding the libraries. Not sure why this is but it probably should be fixed.
Yeah, it'd be a very good idea to use the includes as a hint, at least with the tree organized as it is on Windows. On Unixy systems, it won't work so well, but we can find things easier there anyway, right? :)
