 I have a similar problem to one described here:
 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14835605/linking-with-gcc-fails-after-

 switching-boost-version-from-1-52-to-1-53

 I'm able to fix it by adding -lrt in my build system, but I guess it's a
 bug in boost build system - if boost needs -lrt, it should have been
 already linked against it, right?

 I build boost like this:
 {{{
 ./bootstrap.sh --without-icu
 ./b2 toolset=gcc variant=release link=static threading=multi runtime-
 link=shared --with-system --with-filesystem --with-test --with-thread
 --prefix=/some/path install
 }}}
