 > I second this question. Has this problem been resolved or does it also
 affect v1.45? I ask, because I have updated to boost v1.45 yesterday and
 have problems to open older binary archives, which have been created with
 boost v1.37 and v1.42. To sort out where the error comes from, I tried to
 recompile my software and the boost libraries with some intermediate
 versions of boost. It works ok with v1.42. On v1.44 I get the "unsupported
 version" error, but on v1.45 I am getting a lot of exceptions
 "basic_string::resize" when I try to open older binary archives. I am
 using Debian lenny with gcc 4.3.2.
 It looks to me like errors are ''expected'' when reading archives created
 with v1.42 or v1.43.
 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_45_0/libs/serialization/doc/release.html#differences_1_43


 However, I think archives created with v1.37 are supposed to work fine as
 is, so that might be a separate issue.
