Hello:

Fortunately I am in good shape now.

With the help of a friend we managed to track down a bug in the version 
of the portable_binary_oarchive.cpp that we had from back in June. In 
the save_impl method it was &'ing m_flags & endian_little if on 
BIG_ENDIAN. When I then grabbed the very latest the version in the trunk 
this bug was fixed.

I also found, in the example code, that you need to specify the 
endianness you want to use to create your archives on serialization.
