The latest available version of Boost offered by BoostPro is v1.38. The libraries are placed in: C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_38\lib The strange thing is that FindBoost *does* find Boost, but only if first run with no arguments, followed by explicitly setting BOOST_ROOT.

How is it "broken"? I am new to the CMake way of doing things, so would appreciate any advice for improvement.
