I'm guessing (I've forgotten) my problem was in the time when the latest 
libboost libraries were still linked with libstdc++.so.5... 

Last time I tried *and this is definitely when the latest libboost libraries 
are linkes with stdc++.so.6), there was still the test in some boost header 
telling me boost hasn't been tested with anything above gcc 3.4, which 
scared me off. 

I'm going to look again.

Oh, I never thought monotone was broken, at least regarding this issue :-).
