[boost] Re: [1.33.0] Feature freeze tonight

I'm currently changing the shared_ptr serialization to address the recent
changes in the shared_ptr implementation and re-implement in a manner that
has been discussed elsewhere on this list.  This will fix all the shared_ptr
serialization test failures.  I presume this falls under the heading of "bug
fix" even though its really significant development work?
