The following error is happening when I try to build cufflinks. I am on

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1 and I have installed every boost package
available from the RHN repositories. (I would install directly from
boost but RHN support is usually anal about using stuff from source when
its available from them.)

Cufflinks says it uses boost 1.38, and the package version is 1.41, so
the version should be adequate.

I'm somewhat lost now. This occurred after I noticed some of the
pre-bulit binaries had issues with red-hat's version of the z-lib
library, so I was trying to see if building the package would interface
properly with the included z-lib from redhat, but then I ran into this
boost problem.

the error:
