Subject: [Boost-build] Cannot build boost::serialization for x64 (cross compile)

Hi.
I use the following parameters for bjam:
release address-model=64 --stagedir=${boostroot.dir}/stage64 stage
link=static runtime-link=shared threading=multi toolset=msvc
The boost build for the serialization library integrates tests calling
"no_std_wstreambuf_pass.exe" or "no_std_locale_pass.exe" which are, of
course, no Win32 applications.
So I cannot run them under Windows XP (Win32) and the build fails.
But I need to build the library to be able to cross-compile our
application for x64.
Is there a switch to skip these tests?
