Found on the internet: Boost.thread uses some thread local storage calls that don't work if you directly link them with CLR code. In VS2008 the link would succeed but you'd crash on startup -- I suspect this is a symptom of the same problem, VS2010-style. 

On stackoverflow I found the following workaround:
It is necessary to build boost.thread as a DLL instead of linking it statically, and maybe it'll link for you that way..."	Bugs	closed	To Be Determined	thread	Boost 1.54.0	Problem	wontfix
