Your environnement is too difficult for the CMake script that search for 
Boost: the first boost-thread library found is one for i386. Modify the CMake 
cache directly¹, to fill Boost_THREAD_LIBRARY directory by hand with the 
right 
value.

¹) Use either the GUI cmake-gui, or ccmake (in text mode), or modify the file 
CMakeCache.tx with a text editor.
