There's a second something that's adding boost's library directory. I'm 
guessing this is maybe coming from my copy of cmake's boost detection 
code.

Drat. It would be a very useful feature to have: I install a lot of 
software for other people to use, and maintaining my own patches is a big 
headache.

Big minus in the "comparison with GNU configure" column... setting 
LD_RUN_PATH normally does the trick there.

Thanks,
