[Boost-build] Running "./configure" causes hang; no "./configure" works

In line number 33 of:

http://svn.cleversafe.org/moxie/trunk/thirdparty-builder/scripts/boost.sh

the "./configure" is commented out.  We find that if we don't comment this 
out that are resulting boost-based binaries (those that link the boost 
libs) "hang."  By commenting it out, we get our boost binaries to work.

How might we fix things such that we can consistently run ./configure (and 
therefore check our build environment properly...or so that's my 
understanding of what ./configure does in this context)?
