[Boost-users] [serialization] Is anybody else having problems building serialization?

Hi, 
I am having problems building the serialization library with svn HEAD. 
I checked out the boost trunk into C:/JOHN/hvm/src/boost, and recently I
began seeing this when I build boost with vc8.0:

C:\JOHN\hvm\src\boost>..\..\bin\bjam  --build-type=complete
--stagedir=..\..\  threading=multi  link=static --toolset=msvc
--with-serialization    stage

It looks like an issue crept into the jam file recently because it
_used_ to work.
Any help here would be great!

Thanks,
