how to shadow system boost library?

I was compiling pyrosetta on the cluster(I have no root privilege),pyrosetta requires boost version 1.38,and i install boost 1.38 in my home dir.But the cluster have some version of boost installed in /usr/include/boost/, which is not compatible with pyrosetta code. Is there any way to shadow the system boost library and use my installed version?

Use the -isystem <dir> preprocessor option. This shall achieve what you need.

Excerpt from the cpp manpage (which also applies to gcc)

-isystem dir

       Search dir for header files, after all directories specified by -I
       but before the standard system directories.  Mark it as a system
       directory, so that it gets the same special treatment as is applied
       to the standard system directories.

You should set the include path and library path to use your own install, instead of the one provided by the system. Here's a tutorial on this for g++.
