Ok. Solved! The Boost package installed the libraries under another name:

libboost_thread-gcc42-mt.so

so povray couldn't find it. I suspect on MacOS something similar must happen.

so I symlinked:

ln -s libboost_thread-gcc42-mt-1_36.so.1.36.0 libboost_thread-mt.so

and config went well. Now I'm having issues with the compilation...
