I am not using linux, so it reads

    debug:  LIBS += -Llib/boost/regex/mingw/debug 
-lboost_regex-mgw34-mt-d-1_40
    release:LIBS += -Llib/boost/regex/mingw/release 
-lboost_regex-mgw34-mt-1_40

note that I copy the library file to a new location, because the 
compilation destination path of boost is very strange.

The include is added via

INCLUDEPATH +=  ../boost_1_40_0

or the full path. However during compilation the boost library headers 
are not found.
