If you compiled Boost using Visual Studio, I doubt you can use it with the 
MinGW g++ compiler. In C++ world, binaries coming from different compilers 
(even even different compiler versions of the same compiler suite) are not 
binary compatible.

You need to choose if you want to use CGAL with MinGW or Visual. Then you 
need 
to compile Boost and Qt with the same compiler.
