Look at the most recent documentation.  The problem if import/export
declaration definition is a confusing and long standing.  It came up
littlle by little as boost serialization has crept into more and more
ambitious projects involving DLLS.  I believe it's definitively fixed
now.  (I always believe that).  The solution is in the more recent
library versions.  It properly separates the concept of EXPORT
declaration from implemenation.
