Is this the same issue? I don't really want to use serialization as
shared library, or access it from shared libraries, I only want to use
it as a lib, but we also use boost thread which, on win32, currently
forces us to build and link everything as dlls so our single exe becomes
a single exe but with a multitude of boost dlls shipped with it
(filesystem, thread) etc.

So that is why I need serialization as a dll because auto-link decides
to use the dll.

Currently, I'm foce-linking to the static lib
(libboost-serialization-bcb-mt-d_1_31.lib) and the stuff is working but
I'd rather auto-link just picked up which dll to use as the rest of
boost does.
