$ rpm -qp --provides boost-1.33.0-3.fc4.i386.rpm 
libboost_date_time.so.2 
libboost_filesystem.so.2 
libboost_iostreams.so.2 
libboost_prg_exec_monitor.so.2 
libboost_program_options.so.2 
libboost_python.so.2 
libboost_regex.so.2 
libboost_serialization.so.2 
libboost_signals.so.2 
libboost_test_exec_monitor.so.2 
libboost_thread.so.2 
libboost_unit_test_framework.so.2 
libboost_wserialization.so.2

Note this only happens with the boost-1.33.0 rpms, which are in testing and have
not been pushed to updates.

To work around this, you can just use the boost-1.32.0 rpms, which are available
from the usual yum repositories.

The packaging of boost-1.33.0 is a bit contentious, but it looks likely that
fc-4 will not break the boost ABI, and thus continue to use boost-1.32.0.
