I recently changed my tablet distro of Linux to Fedora 15 x86_64, so I had to
rebuild pov for the new system and I got it working, but it wouldn't build using
the 64-bit boost-thread libraries in /usr/lib64, I had to install the i686
libraries to get it to build.

Any thoughts on this?

Which versions of boost-thread were installed ? (for 64 & i686 )

It might be linked to the fact that fedora insist on using /usr/lib64
for native libraries, instead of the standard /usr/lib...

Which means it could succeed on 64 bits with some additional flags
(LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib64 for configure ?)
