It seems reasoable, because it's not templated code. Creating a library will 
lead to a set of other problems. If both serialization and program_options 
need to use utf library, then, should they link to that new library, or ask 
that users link to the new library themself?

Since it case of static libraries it's not possible to link utf into 
program_options, seems like the user would have to link utf manually. Hmm... 
that's not good, but I don't see better solution.
