Comment (by viboes):

 I think that I understand where the problem could come from.

 Boost.Thread include a DateTime file that even if it is header only, it is
 using the
 #pragma comment(lib, "libboost_date_time-vc110-mt-s-1_50.lib").

 When Visual studio see this pragma it requires to link with date_time. So,
 in my opinion the fix is related to Boost.DateTime that is including the
 boost/config/auto_link.hpp even for header-only files, isn't it?
