Hi,
There are two questions for which I have found no answers:
1. When exactly are -mt (multithreaded) versions of the libraries needed?
When you building MT program, naturally. More specifically, if you use threads anywhere in your program, I'd recommending building all of your program in MT mode (-pthreads for gcc) and linking to MT versions of Boost libraries.
2. Boost.System was added in 1.35 and apparently some of the old libraries also depend on it in new Boost versions. Are the inter-library dependencies of Boost actually documented somewhere, or does one need to guess?
They are not document. filesystem->system dependency is the only one I know. Future Boost release will generate pgk-config files to describe such dependencies. - Volodya
