Comment(by troyer):

 The problem is that the serialization mechanism is not used for primitive
 types. This struct will actually not serialize with a text or XML-based
 archive either. Why is it declared primitive?

 To make it work you have to overload get_mpi_datatype for this "primitive"
 type.
