 Most of the serialization tests are failing on Mingw (see the RW_Mingw45
 runner on
 http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/serialization.html).

 The test results don't tell you whats failing, but the actual log shows
 that it's a linking error when building the lib as a .dll:

 The attached patch adds a #define BOOST_SERIALIZATION_SOURCE to a couple
 of serialization source files, which allows the build to work and most of
 the tests to pass (there are still a few failures, but i have't looked at
 those yet).
