Perhaps, it's worth building the most recent boost version with the
latest NDK/toolchain?
FWIW, boost1.53 gets built with the standard NDK r8d flawlessly (at
least, the libs I need).
I'm using the following b2 line:
b2 release --with-serialization --with-thread --with-date_time
--with-system --with-filesystem --layout=system threading=multi
link=static runtime-link=static toolset=gcc-android target-os=linux
threadapi=pthread stage
and my user-config.jam is as follows (note that it uses gcc 4.7
toolchain, which is not the default in r8d):

import os ;

if [ os.name ] = CYGWIN || [ os.name ] = NT
 {
         androidPlatform = windows ;
 }
 else if [ os.name ] = LINUX
 {
         androidPlatform = linux-x86 ;
 }
 else if [ os.name ] = MACOSX
 {
         androidPlatform = darwin-x86 ;
 }

androidNDKRoot = C:/android-ndk-r8d ;
 using gcc : android :
         $(androidNDKRoot)/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.7/prebuilt/$(androidPlatform)/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++
