I've just updated a project that was working under XCode 4 with boost 
1.48 to XCode 5 and boost 1.55 (installed with MacPorts). Now I have a 
link error with Wave which wasn't the case before. This somehow baffles 
me as I thought everything was template based. I am also linking with 
libboost-wave.mt.a but that doesn't solve the problem. The linker
  errors are, among 6 others:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: 
"boost::wave::cpplexer::new_lexer_gen<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<char*, std::string>,

I've tried forcing std::string as the BOOST_WAVE_STRINGTYPE, but that 
just changes the signatures of the undefined symbols. I fail to see what 
has changed and I am completely stuck. I would have understood if I had 
a compiler error but this is a link error. Is this something to do with 
the standard C++ library? For my project, C++ dialect is C++98 and the 
standard library is libstdc++.

Thanks in advance,
