Reduced test case for msvc is just:

#include <sstream>
#include <boost/archive/text_iarchive.hpp>
#include <boost/archive/text_oarchive.hpp>

int main()
{
    std::stringstream ss(std::ios_base::in | std::ios_base::out | 
std::ios_base::binary);
    boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(ss);
    return 0;
}

Which aborts when calling the stringstream destructor - looks like a 
pure virtual method is called.

The above test case passes with GCC/Linux, but there are many others 
which do not and yield:

testing.capture-output 
../../../bin.v2/libs/serialization/test/test_derived_class_ptr_xml_archive.test/gcc-5.1.0s14/debug/test_derived_class_ptr_xml_archive.run
====== BEGIN OUTPUT ======
pure virtual method called
terminate called without an active exception
Aborted (core dumped)

EXIT STATUS: 134

BTW, basic_text_iprimitive.hpp needs to include <limits> otherwise some 
compilers don't get numeric_limits defined.

HTH, John.
