At present, I'm shipping a Makefile that looks for libboost_thread-mt. This seems to keep most but not all people happy. I have the impression that the majority of distributions are shipping libraries with -mt suffixes but without the -gcc stuff, while a few are also stripping the -mt. I encourage you to converge towards the current majority position.
How can we reliably figure what is "majority"?
Hmm, well I've just checked a Fedora 7 box and it seems to *not* have the -mt suffix. So it's not as clear-cut as I thought. And presumably those Fedora users have been able to edit my Makefile without much help from me... Phil.
