Hello, allow me to repost the following, just in case it 
went unnoticed by someone who can help: 

Hello, the date_time serialization test testgreg_serialize fails at 
the aforementioned 
regression runner with the following (http://tinyurl.com/24jdla ): 

C:/Programme/mingw-3.4.5/bin/g++.exe" -ftemplate-depth-128 -O0 -fno-
inline -Wall -g 
-DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DBOOST_SERIALIZATION_DYN_LINK=1 -I".." -c -
o "X:\boost-regression\gcc-3.4.5\results\boost\bin.v2
\libs\serialization\build\gcc-mingw-3.4.5\ 
debug\basic_text_wiprimitive.o" "..\libs\serialization\src\basic_text_w
iprimitive.cpp" 

..\libs\serialization\src\basic_text_wiprimitive.cpp:14:2: 
#error "wide char i/o not supported on this platform" 

which suggests that testgreg_serialize depends on boost_wserialization 
(note the w), yet the associated Jamfile.v2 reads: 

 [ run gregorian/testgreg_serialize.cpp 
   ../build//boost_date_time/<link>static 
   ../../serialization/build//boost_serialization 
   : : : $(DATE_TIME_PROPERTIES) 
   : testgreg_serialize ] 

That is, testgreg_serialize depends on boost_serialization (without 
the w), and in fact my 
local tests on Cygwin show that doing a bjam testgreg_serialize does 
not compile any 
wide char part of Boost.Serialization. 

Any idea what's going on? Thank you,
