Hi,

I'm a noob when it comes to linking/compiling on *nix systems, and I'm
having problems building source-highlight w/r/t the Boost RegEx library.
I've read the very helpful notes on this particular issue (
http://www.gnu.org/s/src-highlite/source-highlight.html#Tips-on-installing-Boost-Regex-library)
but still coming up short. To summarize:

I built the Boost libraries (successfully) , after which I get the following
message:

The following directory should be added to compiler include
> paths: /Users/wnpm38/boost_1_47_0
> The following directory should be added to linker library paths:
>  /Users/wnpm38/boost_1_47_0/stage/lib


I then run ./configure with the CXXFLAGS parameter:

./configure CXXFLAGS=-I/Users/wnpm38/boost_1_47_0

I get the following output:

> checking whether the Boost::Regex library is available... yes
> > configure: error: Could not find a version of the Boost::Regex library!


I'm assuming it's finding the header files, but not the libraries (?). Any
clues what I'm doing wrong?

thanks!
Tim
