Description
I prefer to use C++11 and std::shared_ptr, but the serialization library can't use those. Please fix!

I will fix this --- eventually.
It's not a trivial fix. This is because (out of necessity) I broke a rule and coupled serialization of boost::shared_ptr to the archive clesses. I hated to do it but I felt I had to include boost::shared_ptr. Now we have shared_ptr which is also not serializable without extra help. The real solution is to enhance the archive classes to include some more API to handle classes not normally serializable.
