Where is your boost installed?
What did you set BOOST_ROOT and BOOST_INCLUDE to?
What is the name of the folder inside of $BOOST_ROOT/include/? Does  
that folder have a version number on it?

Run "make VERBOSE=1" when you build your application (or disclose the  
verbose compiler output from Xcode) and copy the output from the  
compiler invocation and send that along also.

Did you compile boost yourself or did you get a pre-compiled binary  
from somewhere?
