Thanks Rene, that did the trick. I think I understand now about auto 
linking, because I had to fight with it again when I made my first 
Windows app that linked against a Boost library.

I can see where the auto linking would be handy if it worked in all 
cases. Is there any plan to fix it for the system layout case? Maybe in 
1.34?
