You have to build boost and link to the libboost_serialization-... 
library. Serialization is not a header only library. That's what 
Vladimir was pointing out. 
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/more/getting_started/windows.html 
explains how that works. Note especially that auto-linking doesn't work 
with MinGW. You have to specify the libraries to link against yourself.

Have a nice day,
Stefan

Because (using some automatic tools), I DO know that most of those member functions that the error messages in the P.S. mentions are not implemented in my respective Boost.Serialization directory. Might that be because Serialization needs some form of pre-use build? Or, am I missing something else?
