Thanks, but it hasn't worked. Note that I did replace ~ by it's expanded 
version but $env does not show DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH : is it supposed to?

First, I don't see why it's looking for dyn library if I add 
libboost_serialization.a to the project, not 
libboost_serialization.dynlib (even if I reverse their roles I still get 
the same linking error message as above).

I found this but have yet to make sense of it.
