[boost] [serialization] and list<shared_ptr<const T> >

If I try and write a list<shared_ptr<const T> > to an archive, I get a 
compilation error.  I'm guessing this is because the objects in the list 
are shared_ptr<const T>

The documentation for const members says to use const_cast<T&>(t) but 
when you want to try and write a list, you can't do this unless you 
write all the objects manually.

Is there a way for serialization to be able to handle the const 
implicitly (for containers at least)?  Otherwise the only solutions I 
can see are

- Don't use const objects
- Write all elements of the list ourselves.

Thanks
