well it does here:

(i can easily fix them btw, but i wanted to know first what it is we
should do)

this one's also wrong, but we can do that at the same time:

jelte at dragon:~/repos/bind10/trunk> ./configure --with-boost-lib
jelte at dragon:~/repos/bind10/trunk> make
<snip>
/bin/bash ../../../libtool --tag=CXX   --mode=link g++  -g -O2 -g -Wall
- -Wextra -Wwrite-strings -Woverloaded-virtual -Wno-sign-compare -fPIC

See my somewhat longer mail from earlier today about what I think our
options are :)
