[boost] How do we serialize boost::any?

Just how do we serialize boost::any variables using
the boost serialization library?

I currently have an implementation, but it isn't  very
pretty. I think what I am doing is essentially similar
to what boost serialization does when we register
classes for serializing polymorphic pointers: using
the type_info in the boost::any variable, call the
correct serializer/deserializer functions using a
previously registered list. The ugly part is that now
I've to register *twice* (once with boost and once
with my list), pretty much to accomplish the same
thing.

Does anyone know of a cleaner way to serialize
boost::any?

Thanks to those who reply in advance!

Regards,
Vishnu.
