[boost] [serialization] codecvt_null bugs?

Robert,
I think I've found out why all warchive tests failed with gcc 3.3. It seems 
there were two bugs in codecvt_null implementation. Both was causing it to 
return 'partial', when strictly speaking it should return 'ok'. I don't know 
why tests passed with earlier gcc version, maybe they had sloppier logic.

Anyway, I attach the patch to the code, and a patch to the test which I used 
to track this down. 

I also changed warchive so that wchar_t is casted to 'unsigned int', not 
short. With all those patches, results at

look even better.

P.S. And BTW, if serialization was hosted in some version control system, e.g. 
in boost sandbox, creation of all those patches would be much easier ;-)
