Take a look at 
http://www.boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/tutorial/linkage.html

I believe what you want to do is force your library to be shared:
lib l : l.cpp : <link>shared ;

And when you use boost, force it to be static:
lib l : l.cpp /boost//thread/<link>static : <link>shared ;

Boost-build should then do the right thing I believe.
