I tried to use this work and did a little bit of cmake work to straighten
out options. What I found is that there is a boost dependency in the
safe_numeric_cast in TTransportException.hpp and there's another boost
dependency in TProtocol.h (for endian detection) that needs to be resolved.
What I would suggest is that you try building on Windows without boost,
disabling build of tests and tutorials, so that all you build is the compiler
and the C++ library.
You can see what I did in my referenced pull request in my fork.
