This should only occur when trying to load data which
cannot be represented in the loading system. For example
suppose one has a value >32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
No
problem. Then it is saved to a portable binary
archive. Still
no problem. Then it is loaded by a mache with 32 bit integers.
Uh-oh - the information can't be represented and an
exception is thrown.
I believe that the only think pending is a more general
representation of floating point values. Apparently
that
hasn't been an issue for people that use it.
