Not only on "some Unixes"; the way libpython gets built on Linux systems differs among the different distributions.
We also know of having to add -lutil for pty related functions.
The way this is typically solved is by querying the library / tool about its dependencies (via autotools, i.e. configure, say). I'm not sure whether boost.build has something equivalent...
We don't have any configure-like solution at the moment. Care to work on one? ;-)
