It looks like this might be an issue added to the Mountain Lion install
notes over the weekend:

    The latest version of HomeBrew as of this writing (February 23,
    2013) installs Boost 1.53.0. Unfortunately, it doesn't work with
    the release candidate version of BIND 10 as reported in:
    http://bind10.isc.org/ticket/2764
    Until this ticket is resolved, you'll need to apply the proposed
    patch by hand before building BIND 10:

    % cd bind10-1.0.0
    % curl -o - http://bind10.isc.org/raw-attachment/ticket/2764/base_n.diff | patch -p1

    Alternatively, you could use an older version of Boost by
    downloading from  http://www.boost.org/ and extracting it
    somewhere. You'll need to specify the path to your local Boost
    header files using the --with-boost-include ./configure option. 

Please go ahead and try that patch and let us know if it works.

Thanks!
