I'm not sure I understand what the problem is. Is the generated XML file
well-formed ? Is it valid, according to whatever document-type
definition might exist ?

It sounds as if your database imposes additional constraints (unrelated
to XML), that are not met by the XML-generation of boost.serialization.

If that's the case, may be you can post-process the XML by renaming
certain nodes (using an XSLT transformation, say) ?
