I suppose that means that in the redhat/fedora case these things are already
in the path or something? Not that it matters really, just odd that I never
had that problem :)

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!
