This bug still exists. The solution is explained here:
http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2010-May/037163.html [^]
The issue is that FindBoost.cmake searches first for libraries with the -mt (multithreaded) suffix and finds them in /usr/lib but not in the local install dir because the local install has mt disabled. |

Sending old, never assigned issues to the backlog.
(The age of the bug, plus the fact that it's never been assigned to anyone means that nobody is actively working on it...)
If an issue you care about is sent to the backlog when you feel it should have been addressed in a different manner, please bring it up on the CMake mailing list for discussion. Sign up for the mailing list here, if you're not already on it: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake [^]
It's easy to re-activate a bug here if you can find a CMake developer who has the bandwidth to take it on, and ferry a fix through to our 'next' branch for dashboard testing.

In addition to the suggestion Pat made on 5/9 you could also set Boost_NO_SYSTEM_PATHS which will exclude /usr/lib from your searches.
I'm open to suggestions or patches on how we could improve the code to try to detect this problem. It stems from needing the code to search for (e.g.) libboost_system.so / libboost_system.a. Distributions like Ubuntu don't include the full boost version number with the static libraries.
/usr/lib/libboost_system.a
/usr/lib/libboost_system-mt.a
/usr/lib/libboost_system-mt.so
/usr/lib/libboost_system.so
/usr/lib/libboost_system.so.1.46.1
As a result, we can't safely delete the last line in the list of these checks.
#
# Find RELEASE libraries
#
set(_boost_RELEASE_NAMES
${Boost_LIB_PREFIX}boost_${COMPONENT}${_boost_COMPILER}${_boost_MULTITHREADED}${_boost_RELEASE_ABI_TAG}-${Boost_LIB_VERSION}
${Boost_LIB_PREFIX}boost_${COMPONENT}${_boost_COMPILER}${_boost_MULTITHREADED}${_boost_RELEASE_ABI_TAG}
${Boost_LIB_PREFIX}boost_${COMPONENT}${_boost_MULTITHREADED}${_boost_RELEASE_ABI_TAG}-${Boost_LIB_VERSION}
${Boost_LIB_PREFIX}boost_${COMPONENT}${_boost_MULTITHREADED}${_boost_RELEASE_ABI_TAG}
${Boost_LIB_PREFIX}boost_${COMPONENT} )
Seems like the only thing we could do is detect that Boost libraries are being sourced from multiple prefixes (somehow) and either prevent it from happening (by dynamically manipulating the search paths after the first library is found) or warning/erroring about it afterwards.
I'm open to patches if someone has time to work on this issue, but I think the workarounds are sufficient for now.
