Re: [Boost-users] [serialization] shared libraries & extended_type_inforegistration

There are two issues with the serialization library

a) Its not currently thread safe
b) Serialization code can be duplicated in different shared libraries. It's 
not clear what this implies.

The first is on a path to final solution.  It will depend upon the existence 
a thread-safe lazily initialized singleton which will have to be provided by 
the user until boost has such a thing (if that ever happens).

I'm still thinking about the second.  What it means and the best way to 
address it.
