dev-python/tagpy-0.92 fails when building because it's looking for libboost-python-mt which doesn't exist when dev-libs/boost is built without the threads useflag.

Sigh... dev-zero: can we get >=boost-1.34.0-r1 stable to avoid sticking more of these sucky checks all over the place?
Hey, I can confirm that enabling threads solves the problem and I can now emerge tagpy-0.91 through 0.93. I hope this bug gets eventually fixed, but for now the solution will reside in package.use. Thanks.
Changed the dependency to require >=boost-1.34.1 (since that one's stable now). This fixes the problem. Cheers.
