If that's an non-rhetoric question, take a look at

        http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/189020

which clearly shows your email inside unrelated thread. The "reply-to"
command in all decent software sets In-Reply-To header, and most clients
use that to display threads, therefore replying to unrelated email make
your message appear where it might be missed, or interfere with other
discussion.

Then, I guess you get to do what Marcus Lindblom suggested -- finding
which object file grabs that library.
