  I am also on a FC5-x86 machine, and for me, the configure script
always finds the correct libraries.

  In this case a hypen was used instead of an underbar... All these
different names for the same library are driving me nuts. I guess the
only choice is to make boost.m4 support *all* the names, which seems
silly, but effective. I assume the difference in this case that you
built Boost from source.
