[Boost-users] Build Boost Binary

We tried to build boost binary library to be used in
our projects on Windows and Linux. 

We have successfully built v1.35 on linux. But we
cannot built it without any error on Cygwin and MinGW.

We got the same result on Cygwin and MinGW:
libs\serialization\src\basic_text_wiprimitive.cpp:14:2:
#error "wide char i/o not supported on this platform"
.
.
.
...failed updating 12 targets...
...skipped 8 targets...
...updated 255 targets...

My questions here are followed:
1. Does serialization must be built before we use it?
the doc says it must be built separately. does that
serialization is this one we failed?
2. With those failed targets, can we still use the
built binary result?

thanks,
James
