[boost] building boost on i386 OSX

From: Oliver Gräser (oliver.graeser_at_[hidden])

Hello,

I'm trying to build boost on my Macbook, which runs OSX 10.4.7 on  
intel core duo with 2GB of ram. I downloaded boost_1_33_1.tar.gz,  
untared the file, ran configure, sudo make, sudo make install.  
Apparently, this installs some 1k + libraries, but not all - 6  
libraries are not installed. If I re-run configure and make, it tries  
to update only these libs, but failes again. I attach the full  
output, however, the failure seems to originate from some undefined  
symbols (what ever a symbol is...)

ld: Undefined symbols:
__Z20init_unit_test_suiteiPPc
/usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed

All these symbols are called whatsoeverPPc, so I think it might be  
caused by my intel CPU. Is there any workaround for this? I found the  
same problem posted on another mailing list, but with no replies so  
far. Can anyone help?

Thanks a lot

Oliver
