Thank you very much for this hint.

After removing another dependency in that jam file
( <dependency>../../config/test/all//BOOST_NO_STD_WSTREAMBUF )
the build completes successfully.

Well, whereas my above statement is as correct as it could be, it's also
totally useless as far as original problem is concerned, here and now.

Armin, go to libs/serialization/build/Jamfile.v2 and find this line:

    : requirements <dependency>../../config/test//BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE

and remove the 

        <dependency>../../config/test//BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE

part of it. Then it should work.
