This seems like an issue with how you build boost.

clock_gettime is linked in via -lrt shouldn't libboost_thread-gcc44-mt-1_55.a 
be in charge of that?

i'm running into the same exact issue.
boost is compiled as described in the doc (static, versioned, mt).
curious why i'm getting this as well...

I successfully compiled Alembic with Boost 1.44. Boost 1.55 seems to have
some compatible issues with Alembic.

yep. same here. just tried with 1.44 with same compile rules and it works just 
fine.
1.55 does not play nicely with alembic. thanks.

I successfully compiled Alembic with Boost 1.55 on Ubuntu 14.04. I only get a 
warning while running the bootstrap, that I ignored; then make && make install 
without any trouble.

Using Alembic 1.5.8 and gcc 4.8.2
