That is the one.

There are only a few files you need to compile from boost for PovRay.
Why don't you include them when you compile and ignore the fedora
package of boost?
For boost 1.45 you only have to compile the following files. If you use
later versions you need extra files but v 1.45 is fine.
 /libs/thread/src/tss_null.cpp
/libs/thread/src/pthread/thread.cpp << add stack fix in this one
/libs/thread/src/pthread/once.cpp

/libs/date_time/src/posix_time_types.cpp
I don't know if you need these but I use them somewhere in my Mac
compile:
/libs/date_time/src/gregorian/date_generators.cpp
/libs/date_time/src/gregorian/greg_month.cpp
/libs/date_time/src/gregorian/greg_weekday.cpp
/libs/date_time/src/gregorian/gregorian_types.cpp

No, once there was a fix for this in a patched boost lib used by PovRay
but then you also had to compile it with the whole package to use it.
