In my code I use BOOST_HAS_DECLSPEC but I'm having problems with mingw. I'm not sure it has anything to do with this, but it's not at clear to me what the differing meanings are of BOOST_HAS_DECLTYPE and BOOST_HAS_DECLSPEC.
BOOST_HAS_DECLSPEC is the interesting one. Please find a patch adding two more "#define BOOST_SERIALIZATION_SOURCE" to the sources. This fixed compilation for me when using gcc's symbol visibility and might help here as mingw uses symbol visibility "under the hood" for __declspec(dllimport/-export).
I'm aware of this "fix". I'm very reluctant to just do it because I don't understand why it works or should work. So it's almost certain that if I just do this, It will come back to torture me some time just after the next version is released. Robert Ramey
