Comment (by Ian Calegory):

 I have pre-compiled the Boost C++ 1.53 Libraries for Android for the four
 main Android architectures: armeabi, armeabi-v7a, mips, x86.  They are
 available for download on my website at this URL:
 [http://www.mandelmania.net/boost.html].  The download includes four sets
 of .a files, for the four architectures, along with the include files.

 They are great for use in Embarcadero's RAD Studio FireMonkey platform
 using C++ Builder—in fact, they are available as a free GetIt add-on
 for C++ Builder—but they should work in just about any Android
 application by linking in the required .a files.

 There's also a sample RAD Studio project available on that page that uses
 Boost serialization which can be downloaded, and is ready for compilation
 and deployment from within RAD Studio.  It's easily deployable also to
 Windows and Mac OS X!  The code itself can be used with other compilers as
 well—which further lends itself to cross platform capability, and
 code could be written (with a minimal set of compiler directives) that
 runs on Windows, Android, and Mac too!
