Hi Douglas,

I believe this line should read bjam "-sTOOLS=mingw" install

I think this is caused boost detecting the lack of some wstring support
in MINGW.

I have built boost under mingw and get the same error with
wserialization.  The error just means you do not have support for wide
character archives.  Not really a showstopper in most cases.  If you
want wstring support, boost recommends using stlport with mingw.

Hope this helps,
