Comment:

 The library has to assume that the stream remains open while an archive is
 being saved.  This is not an unreasonable expectation.

 basically the best way to handle this would be to trap the situation where
 the stream closes and not make any serialization library calls when this
 is detected.

 In any case, the library won't be changing.
