Using PovRay sources version 3.7.0 on:
 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, kernel 3.13.0-24-generic

Other package info:
 Package: libboost-dev
 Version: 1.54.0.1ubuntu1

 Package: zlib1g-dev
 Version: 1:1.2.8.dfsg-1ubuntu1

 Package: libpng12-dev
 Version: 1.2.50-1ubuntu2

 Package: libjpeg8-dev
 Version: 8c-2ubuntu8

 Package: libtiff5-dev
 Version: 4.0.3-7ubuntu0.1

 Package: libopenexr-dev
 Version: 1.6.1-7ubuntu1

After starting 'make test', the following was displayed:

 undefined reference to `typeinfo for boost::detail::thread_data_base'
.../source/libpovray.a(tokenize.o): In function `pov::Parser::Get_Token()':
tokenize.cpp:(.text+0x2471): undefined reference to
`boost::this_thread::yield()'
.../source/libpovray.a(photonestimationtask.o): In function
`pov::Task::Cooperate()':
photonestimationtask.cpp:(.text._ZN3pov4Task9CooperateEv[_ZN3pov4Task9CooperateEv]+0x19):
undefined reference to `boost::this_thread::yield()'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [povray] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory

Haven't tried any older versions of source. Is that the only solution?

Ubuntu 14.04 needs :
 $ ./configure .... LIBS="-lboost_system"

Good luck... I'm even surprised you passed the compilation.

(and yield should be in libboost_thread ... )

result of "ldd povray" (on my system)

I should have searched the output further up - to where the compilation first
erred (Duh!). This is where the problem started:

g++  -pipe -Wno-multichar -Wno-write-strings -fno-enforce-eh-specs -s -O3
-ffast-math -march=native -pthread  -L/usr/lib  -L/usr/lib -o povray disp_sdl.o
disp_text.o ../vfe/libvfe.a ../source/libpovray.a -lSM -lICE -lX11  -lIlmImf
-pthread -lIlmImf -lz -lImath -lHalf -lIex -lIlmThread   -lIlmThread -ltiff
-ljpeg -lpng -lz -lrt -lm   -pthread  -lboost_system
.../vfe/libvfe.a(unixconsole.o): In function `boost::detail::thread_data<void
(*)()>::~thread_data()':
unixconsole.cpp:(.text._ZN5boost6detail11thread_dataIPFvvEED2Ev[_ZN5boost6detail11thread_dataIPFvvEED5Ev]+0x8):
undefined reference to `boost::detail::thread_data_base::~thread_data_base()'

"-lboost_system" was already in the command.

Google/StackOverflow to the rescue:
   -install libboost-thread-dev and libevent-pthreads-2.0-5

But still had the problem. So then used configure with "LIBS="-lboost_thread"

At this point, 'make check' finally worked!

So you were close! Thanks for the help.
