First is to see which versions of boost are available on which distros/OSs. Thankfully the win32 front is fairly up to date, but there are a few distros that delay updating things.
FWIW, the latest boost (1.39) is available on Mac OS X.
I installed boost via MacPorts 'port install boost' as recommended on http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/CompilingMacOsX, without considering any variants or reading the documentation on its homepage. The compilation took a really long time even compared to building inkscape itself and the installed libs have an overall size of 95 MB. Are _all_ of these libraries required to build inkscape?
