That's odd -- I've been able to build applications using adjacency_list 
with only the Boost headers and not linking any Boost libraries.  This was 
on Linux, though, so maybe your issue is auto-linking related.  Shouldn't 
auto-linking find the dynamic libraries automatically, though?  Also, do 
you have "using mpi ;" in your project-config.jam, or are you including 
<boost/graph/use_mpi.hpp> in any of your files?
