OK OK I got it finally !
THanks for your help.

Now that I'm looking back its sorta obvious, but I
guess I didn;t really now that when you use "-l<some-lib>"
with g++ (any compiler?) the its just the name of the
physical library in "/usr/local/lib" (or wherever)
with the "lib" part cut off.

So I was able to get a hello_world.cpp to compile by
doing:

g++                                   \
    -lboost_regex-gcc                 \
    -L/usr/local/lib                  \
    -I/usr/local/include/boost-1_31   \
    hello_world.cpp

It was the "-lboost_regex-gcc" part that was tripping
me up. I wasn't putting the "-gcc" on the end.

Thanks again!
