[boost] [mpi] non-char strings

The last two checkouts I installed both failed passing strings through
boost::mpi communication methods when the element type was not
char. So maybe someone besides me will have use for the attached patch
which makes it work again. I assume this way of passing strings
isn't here to stay anyway since boost::serialization also handles
strings.

Best regards,
