Hats off - I know this was hard to find.  BTW it didn't show up on my test
machine which was running CW Pro 9 .

Also it looks like someone (B. Dawes? Or perhaps the tester) modified the
build so that we don't get a lot of link errors.

I believe I'm making progress in understanding an issue with broken function
template overloads which breaks non-intrusive serialization.  We'll see.
