Where are you seeing this? The error message shown at the regression
output is different than that and refers to the compilation of 
basic_text_wiprimitive.cpp (http://tinyurl.com/2nfmcr ):

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

which looks as if bjam has (wrongly) attempted building
boost_wserialization. I don't know how this relates to your reported
linking problem.
