Comment (by brandon.kohn):

 The singleton<iserializer<Archive,TestObject> > is the thing being
 duplicated, and it is exported. BOOST_DLL_EXPORT is (in msvc) always
 defined as _declspec(dllexport), and is used on the static public
 interface of the singleton type. Near as I can tell, this means it will be
 exported from every DLL or exe in which it is included. I don't know
 enough about what could be done differently to be able to call it a bug.
 I'm surprised we haven't run into an issue like this example in our
 codebase as we use a lot of DLLs. I suppose we tend to concentrate our use
 of serialization in the same DLLs as where the types are exported. Perhaps
 that could be a workaround?
