These get built into the libboost_date_time.a which needs to be included in your link line. So add something like:

 -L BOOST_TOP/libs/date_time/build/bin/libboost_date_time.a/gcc/debug/runtime-link-dynamic -lboost_date_time

Feel free to move the library somewhere with a shorter path :-)

If you haven't built the library you will need to go /libs/date_time/build and run bjam to produce the library.  Just microseconds
after 1.29.0 was released I realized that I forgot to update the top-level boost Jamfile....
