Hi
I finally solved the problem.
I just had to change from -lboost_xxx to -lboost_xxx-mt.
The remaining problem was just a consequence of my IDE (Eclipse) that was
keeping some "cache" file that were still using old versions of Boost
library.
Sorry for the inconvenience and the silly questions.
Thanks for the help.
