Follow-up Comment #3, bug #10419 (project wesnoth):

With the great help of Benoit Sigoure it was indeed very simple.

Just copy boost.m4 from http://repo.or.cz/w/boost.m4.git into
m4/ and apply the attached patch against configure.ac.

You will get a warning during compilation:
g++: unrecognized option '-R/usr/lib'

This is harmless and will go away once you use libtool for library handling.

You may want to check the license of boost.m4. Benoit licensed
it unter GPL v3+ (but is willing to relicense) whereas Wesnoth
is GPL v2+. Will using boost.m4 make Wesnoth a derived work? If
not why do many autoconf macros contain a sentence as "Copying
and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are
permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright
notice and this notice are preserved."?
