Is there a reason you're trying to compile cygnal?  Regardless, the
reason why Gnash's autoconf isn't detecting boost's date_time lib on
Win32 is because macros/boost.m4 needs to be "fixed" for Win32, where
the (Boost default) library filenames look like this:

MinGW/MSYS:

    libboost_date_time-mgw34-mt-1_34.a
    libboost_thread-mgw34-mt-1_34.a

MSVC++ 8.0:

    libboost_date_time-vc80-mt-1_34.lib
    libboost_thread-vc80-mt-1_34.lib

This is for Boost 1.34.0.
