So I forced that:
#define BOOST_INTERLOCKED_IMPORT __declspec(dllimport)
I rebuilt boost with the following commands:
CC=x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc\
        CXX=x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++\
        ./bootstrap.sh --without-icu --prefix=build --with-toolset=gcc
echo "using gcc : : x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ :
<compileflags>-DBOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB ;" > user-config.jam
mkdir build
./b2 -d2 -j8 --layout=system --user-config=user-config.jam
--without-mpi --without-python\
        link=static\
        threading=multi\
        runtime-link=shared\
        address-model=64\
        instruction-set=nocona\
        target-os=windows\
        threadapi=win32\
        variant=release\
        install > build/build.log 2>&1

but still got the following error:
x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ -o mgw64-release/obj/Tests/xuxu2.o -c -O3

I have also made a minimal example so that anybody can test:
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/thread.hpp>
struct Runner {
                void operator()() const { std::cout<<"Runner::operator()\n"; }
};
int main(int, char*[]) {
        Runner r;
        boost::thread t1(r);
        t1.join();
        return 0;
}

Cheers,

Frédéric
