Thanks, I will try that.

However, it seems a bit strange that the build would totally fail.  I
can build boost normally, and it complains that it can not build
serialization, but the build continues.  However, when running the
tests, it yells about serialization, then just stops.  Shouldn't it keep
on trucking, with thoses tests missing, or failed?
