Hello,
   We recently were asked to build TomoPY.   One of the requirements was 
Boost 1.55.0. However, the library needed was libboost_thread, but on 
our machine, only libboost_thread-mt was available.  So we created a 
symlink, libboost_thread, to libboost_thread-mt. Are there any issues we 
don't understand with doing this? Thanks.
