linking problems when compiling with g++ using boost

[Cameron Wood <ckwood at gmail dot com>]

I have installed a vanilla install of cygwin which includes boost
1.33.  I have a simple application which compiles and runs on another
system fine.  However using cygwin it complains about undefined
references to all the boost objects and functions.

I can see the exact functions/objects that its complaining about when
I do an nm on the apparent missing boost library:
00000070 T boost::program_options::options_description::add_options()

my compilation is:
g++ -I/usr/include/boost-1_33 -L/usr/lib 
-lboost_program_options-gcc-mt-s -lboost_regex-gcc-mt-s
getStats.C
(the library is in fact in /usr/lib)

with errors like:
o:getStats.C:(.text+0x26b): undefined reference to
`boost::program_options::options_description::add_options()'

One thing I don't get are the different suffixes on the end of the
boost libraries.  Any help regarding this would greatly be
appreciated!
Thanks,
Cameron
