I am using mingw64 that has gcc4.8.2 using posix threads (basically downloaded x86_64-4.8.2-release-posix-seh-rt_v3-rev2.7z from mingw64 website)

I have successfully built Boost with this (all possible variants) and have tested other applications that use the Boost and produce a working executable.

The tests get compiled and I can run them with no problem:

$ tests/cpp-netlib-utils_thread_pool.exe
Running 2 test cases...

*** No errors detected

However running any of the examples fails with the above message:

$ make twitter_search
...
[100%] Built target twitter_search
$ example/twitter_search.exe

was unable to start correctly (0x000007b)

I am developing my app using 0.11-devel branch, however today I tried today's head and issue still exists, i.e. tests run fine but example/simple_wget.exe caused the mentioned error.

As far as option setting in CMake goes, I haven't changed anything and I just provide the location of my Boost lib to CMake.

This is the linker line that CMake spits out when building the wget example

Check using debugger... Maybe you need DLLs?
