Milestone:  Boost 1.42.0               |   Component:  serialization
  Version:  Boost 1.41.0               |    Severity:  Problem

 archive/detail/oserializer.hpp has the following code:

             if(NULL == true_type){
                 boost::serialization::throw_exception(
                     archive_exception(
                         archive_exception::unregistered_class,
                         true_type->get_debug_info()
                     )
                 );
             }

 This tries to access a NULL pointer (get_debug_info()).  I believe this
 should be changed to 'this_type->get_debug_info()'.

 I verified this exists in trunk.
