 I know that, and Boost.Thread uses it, but it forces just to link with
 boost_thread. I have checked Boost.System, Boost.DateTime and Boost.Chrono
 and all of them use the same technique, but may be there is a file that is
 missing the include.
 Could you point to the file you are including that makes the linker fail?
