That can be done with Boost.Serialization today if you bounce the
boost::serialization::serialize() function to a trampoline function
object and do your SFINAE on the function object. I have described
the general technique here:

I am using this technique together with Boost.Serialization here:

with a SFINAE (well, partial specialization) example here:
