I couldn't build the latest boost from svn with boost build v2 (win32 with msvc 80 sp1, serialization wide-archive compilation/link problems). I've attached a patch which allowed it to build (dunno if this is the right way to fix the problem). It also seems that the following files get deleted after I run bjam...
