The error indicates that the project settings are different from those used 
to build the Boost libraries during installation - typically you are doing a 
debug build without __STL_DEBUG defined, or a release build with __STL_DEBUG 
defined (the installed debug lib's would have been built with this define 
set and need it to be set in your application's debug builds in order to 
ensure binary compatibility with the lib's you will be linking against).

HTH, John.
