I can't help for the rest of your questions, but we use GCC+HP-UX+Boost in our work without any problem.

The only real difference with your environment is that we work in HP-UX 11.23 but on PA-RISC...

We had to "force" Boost to believe that this environment is OK for building multi-thread versions of the libraries.
As you have said, gcc.jam indicates that GCC on HP-UX does not support threading.
