Sorry, I found what this was.

I had made a serialization function for boost::array that was templated. 
  It was something like so:

template< typename T, int I >
void f(boost::array<T,I> ...)

The actual template sig for array is <typename, std::size_t>.  MSVC can 
deal, mingw doesn't resolve them as the same and so doesn't find serialize.
