Hi James,

Unfortunately I don't have confirmation... no one has tried the
recompile.  It's a fairly intensive compile requiring a couple hundred
megs of dev packages so understandable.

In the interim I've learned a bit more of what's going on.  I guess the
default in Hardy was python 2.4, and in Ibex it's 2.5?  The actual
problem is that boost 1.34.1 was only intended to be built with python
2.4.  When built with python 2.5 (which has had the aforementioned ABI
change), boost 1.34.1 breaks.

More details on this here:

I googled quite a bit to see if I could find confirmation that boost
1.35.0 fixes this issue, but I cannot.  Basically I have no idea if it
will fix it or not.  I am sort of guessing it will, but it would be nice
to know for sure :).  Is there anyone who can help me test this theory?
