Well, clearly it's a build issue. So this problem will likely come up
using any boost library. I don't think that tracing into the serialization
code is going to be very helpful.

The only thing I could suggest is to detemine
what the command line XCode IDE is using and compare it to
the one used above or with the one generated by bjam.
