[serialization] test_non_default_ctor2.cpp leaks FloatValueHolder instance

Description
The testcase should serialize member A::floatValue (type FloatValueHolder*) by value instead of through a pointer.
Serializing through a pointer causes the instance created by A's c'tor to be overwritten by a newly created instance, leaking the original.
Using
ar & BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(*floatValue)
instead fixes the problem

This can't be correct.
ar & * x
wouldn't likely give what is desired. I works around version among other things.
If the test is leaking memory, I would be an issue with test itself rather than the library. You could send a suggested patch for the test if you want. But, I'm sure this applies to lots of tests as well as some or all of the demos. The first demo in the tutorial leaks memory. I tolerate this since I didn't want the tutorial clouded up with issues unrelated to the serialization library.
