[Boost-testing] Testing issues regarding the serialization library

a) como- 4_3_3- vc7_1 - we get duplicate symbol messages when linking the
tests. It seems some streams are instantiated in both libraries.  I've tried
to the linker to permit multiple symbols, But it seems I have been
unsuccessful.  I suspect its a toolset/linkerswitch issue - but that's only
a guess.  I wonder if someone who has an itererest in and knowledge of this
compiler/linker could take  a look at this.

b) cw- 9_5- darwin - all the tests using standard library text streams and
DLL linkage are failing.at runtime with no error message.

c)gcc- 3_4_3- linux - dmcgrath2 Most likely this is for the lack of spirit
1.6x installed on the macine along with the environmental variable
SPIRIT_ROOT poiniting to the directory where the older version of spirt is
to be found.

d) gcc- 2.95.3- stlport- 4.6.2- linux.  See c) above

Thanks
