I am guessing this is a bug in the autoconf boost detection code.  I'd
try the following:
First, apt-get install libboost-all-dev
If that doesn't work, try manually setting the boost paths with the
appropriate configure options (--with-boost=<path> and friends).
If that still doesn't work, could you post your config.log (or the tail
end of it anyway)?
