"These macros will be undef'ed at the end of the header, further this header has no include guards - so be sure to include it only once from your library!"

What is the rationale for the above? What happens if its violated. I'm sort of struggling implementind a dll version of the serialization library with autolink. The basic difficulty is that I would like to have the dlls mirror the structure of the the static libraries. That is

libboost_serialization.lib libboost_wserializaton.lib depends on theabove

wserialization.dll is both autolinked and uses serializaton.dll so Its kind of confusing.

I think I may have over stated that, more correctly: It's up to you to ensure that it is included only once for any give definition of BOOST_LIB_NAME, so obviously if you need to link to two or more libs then include it more than once with a different BOOST_LIB_NAME each time. John.
