This is because your Jamfile for serialization only
has <link>shared:<define>BOOST_SERIALIZATION_DYN_LINK
in the requirements, but not in the usage-requirements.
Thus, BOOST_SERIALIZATION_DYN_LINK is set when
building libboost_serialization, but not when building
targets that depend on it.

BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB really means BOOST_ALL_NO_AUTOLINK
It's set because Boost.Build manages the libraries
to link itself.
