The problem occurs when Boost and the compiler have the same default installation path. In this case, CMake tries to be smart during link time and replace the absolute path of the shared library with -l<lib>. With both system-wide and user-provided installations, this can cause CMake to pick up the wrong version of the library. Adding an explicit -L flag to the linker command helps.
