>Description:
	The devel/boost port does not rename and symlink the
	libboost_serialization library in the same way as the others
	in this port.

	It's unclear if this presents any real problem in the
	functionality.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Install the port.  Note that the serialization library is
	appears differently than (in this example) the wserialization
	library, in that its *.so file was not renamed to *.so.3
	(and a symlink made in its place).

>Fix:
	Add serialization to the definition of BOOST_LIBS in
	devel/boost/Makefile.  Modify pkg-plist appropriately.
