[Tile-serving] [osm2pgsql] osm2pgsql 0.87.0 fails to build on some architectures due to incorrect Boost linking (#231)

[Bas Couwenberg]

The C++ rewrite using Boost fails to build on some architectures with the following error:
```

There was an issue in Boost 1.54 with the linking of libboost_atomic which has been fixed in the mean time. This issue was reported in [Debian Bug #721544](https://bugs.debian.org/721544) & [Debian Bug #721577](https://bugs.debian.org/721577), and upstream in [Boost Issue #9041](https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/9041), and it was fixed in Boost 1.55 which used on all architectures where osm2pgsql fails to build.

I'm not sure what the proper fix for osm2pgsql is. Please advise how to best help resolve this issue.
