No. I tried again the following for the thread.cpp:
robert@ubuntu:~/boost$ g++ -L /home/robert/src/boost_1_43_0 -lboost_thread thread.cpp -o thread
 
and got the following complaints:
thread.cpp:2:35: error: boost/thread/thread.hpp: No such file or directory
thread.cpp: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
thread.cpp:12: error: ‘boost’ has not been declared
thread.cpp:12: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘thrd’
thread.cpp:13: error: ‘thrd’ was not decon >
 
If I try
robert@ubuntu:~/boost$ g++ -L/usr/local -lboost_thread thread.cpp -o thread
 
I got:
thread.cpp:2:35: error: boost/thread/thread.hpp: No such file or directory
thread.cpp: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
thread.cpp:12: error: ‘boost’ has not been declared
thread.cpp:12: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘thrd’
thread.cpp:13: error: ‘thrd’ was not dec5
 
Currently there is nothing under directory /usr/local/lib that is related to boost:
robert@ubuntu:/usr/local/lib$ ls -l
total 4
drwxrwsr-x 4 root staff 4096 2010-05-31 08:10 python2.6
 
but there is one lib directory as in:
/home/robert/src/boost_1_43_0 -lboost_thread/lib
 
I got nothing when checking out what boost packages I've already installed with: 
$ dpkg -l | grep boost

Any further hints? Thanks.

The first few complaints I got are:
----------------------------------------------
/tmp/ccwgSZ3d.o: In function `main':
thread.cpp:(.text+0x6e): undefined reference to `boost::thread::join()'
thread.cpp:(.text+0x7f): undefined reference to `boost::thread::~thread()'

/tmp/ccwgSZ3d.o: In function
`boost::detail::thread_data_base::thread_data_base()':
How can I compile boost::thread separately for it to work? Thanks a lot.
 

It looks like you already did

robert@ubuntu:~/src/boost_1_43_0$ sudo ./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/usr/local
--show-libraries --with-libraries=all --exec-prefix=/usr/local/bin/
