#4747: mingw linker errors: undefined references

     Type:  Bugs                        |      Status:  new          
Milestone:  To Be Determined            |   Component:  serialization
  Version:  Boost 1.44.0                |    Severity:  Problem      
 Keywords:  mingw                       |  
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
 The MinGW build fails to link, with fifteen or undefined references as
 such:

 bin.v2\libs\serialization\build\gcc-mingw-4.4.0\release\threading-
 multi\basic_iarchive.o:basic_iarchive.cpp:(.text+0x564): undefined
 reference to `_imp___ZNK5boost13serialization18extended_type_infoltERKS1_'


 Cause: the BOOST_SERIALIZATION_SOURCE flag isn't being set. Note that this
 flag is distinct from BOOST_ARCHIVE_SOURCE.

 The attached patch file modifies the Jamfile.v2 to pass that flag into
 every compilation unit. Maybe that's the final solution, but it resolves
 this issue.
