What I see is that the serialization library defines "std::wcslen" in 
"wcslen.h",
even though there's a perfectly good one already available. This is 
conditionalized
off of BOOST_NO_CWCHAR, which leads me to think that this flag is 
wrong in the darwin config.

So, I moved it so that it is only set when building on GCC 2.95.x.

This did not break any other tests, and made some (many) of the 
serialization tests pass.
There are still many failures, which I am still investigating.

Could someone vet this change, and commit it to CVS? Thanks!

P.S.	There's some bad __APPLE__ conditional compile stuff in 
integer_traits, too;
if anyone wants to take a look at it.
