Hi Colin, Are you positive your symlinks are correct?
I am using boost built from macports, so about all I can offer is that the symlinking in version 1_34 was a tricky problem. You might benefit from taking a look a the boost port file to see how they managed the correct symlinking: http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/browser/trunk/dports/devel/boost/Portfile Overall, keep your notes on building boost for mapnik: posting to mapnik trac about how to get 10.5 running with boost would be a really useful thing (when you get there).
