Boost serialization

Almost all serialization tests are failed now. Some tests can't be linked and the other ones linked successfully but produce incorrect results. Link errors related to stlport. It looks like stlport should be linked as static library for this tests. I will check it. More complicated error breaks other tests. Test case below shows this bug: 

% cat test.cc
struct S
{
    template 
    void operator+(T & t)
    {
        const_cast(t);
    }
};

void foo()
{
    int array[] = {777};
    S s;
    s + array;
}

% CC -c test.cc
"test.cc", line 14: Error: The operation "S + int*" is illegal.

Does BOOST use non-standard extensions to C++? Is it most often compiled with g++? Are there idioms used that could be changed to be more standard conforming? I don't really know, I'm just asking. It would be good to give feedback to the BOOST developers if there are things they could do to make BOOST more portable.
