Details:

The current implementations of boost related macros doesn't auto detect
dynamic libraries on Mac OS X systems as the file suffix is "dylib" which is
untested in those macros. The patch attached added those checks. Current
version do the following:

+ Check libraries on *nix systems in order of *.so*, *.dylib*, *.a*, so that
dynamic libraries are detected first.
+ Remove bashism (use of curly braces like "{" "}")
+ Fix some incorrect sed regular expression (usually a* -> a.*)

Please review. Thanks.
