I'm getting a similar error when I try building pdfs, but I'm also
getting it when using boost 1.35 and 1.36. Which could be a problem
with my setup (if the old versions still build for you, then it must
be), or it might be that something has changed in the docbook xsl (not
necessarily a bug, it could be an incorrect assumption in our
stylesheets). Are you using a recent version?

I'll experiment some more later on. I don't think any of the recent
changes to boostbook would be likely to cause this, although I could
have easily overlooked something.
