That was my first choice - but it conflicted with export.hpp which needed to
know what types and archives to instanciate serialize for.   I found no
other way to reconcile it.

I'm sure this is not the only case where two phase lookup causes problems.
Its going to cause lots of problems in working programs if it spreads to
other compilers.  Two phase lookup is a bad idea.
