I think I found the cause of the problem I was investigating: for some 
reason saving version_type data in basic_text_oprimitive results in the 
stream insertion operator's bool overload being called, which in turn 
causes the ones in my previous example being written. Adding an overload 
for version_type to basic_text_oprimitive::save() solves the problem.

I heve still to check the impacts of this change on other tests and I 
don't have a patch against 1.34 as I'm currently testing against 1.33.1 
due to the SourceForge CVS problems.
