Format for binary archives has changed starting in 1.35.  My guess is that the changes should should be made conditional on the library version.  I didn't make these changes but I'll see that its looked into.

 
Could you please elaborate on this a bit?

I am currently using boost 1.34.0, and am using binary archives. If we release
software now that generates binary archives, and at a later stage, if we upgrade the
boost version, will we not be able to read back the old binary archives? How do we
ensure that on upgrading boost we can still read back old binary archives?

Thanks
