Just installed FreeBSD 8.2 on my new file server and decided it could also
double as a render node. So I installed boost libraries using pkg_add,
downloaded and ./configure povray 3.7. No errors during configure. When I type
'make', the first thing I get is

g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../..  -I../..  -I../../source  -I../../source
-I../../source/base  -I../../unix  -I../../vfe  -I../../vfe/unix   -pipe
-Wno-multichar -Wno-write-strings -fno-enforce-eh-specs -s -O3 -ffast-math
-march=native -D_THREAD_SAFE -pthread -MT fnpovfpu.o -MD -MP -MF
..deps/fnpovfpu.Tpo -c -o fnpovfpu.o `test -f 'vm/fnpovfpu.cpp' || echo
'./'`vm/fnpovfpu.cpp
In file included from ../../vfe/unix/syspovconfigbase.h:93,
                 from ../../source/base/configbase.h:98,
                 from ../../source/backend/frame.h:112,
                 from vm/fnpovfpu.cpp:296:
.../../vfe/unix/syspovconfig.h:127:32: error: boost/shared_ptr.hpp: No such file
or directory


WTF? configure detected the presence of boost libraries, how can these things
not be there? Is there something about FreeBSD's package libraries? They're
located in /usr/local/lib and I also tried explicitly stating that to no avail.
