 I came across Johan Rade's post about serialization of a filesystem path
 (see http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2008/09/142550.php).

 However I couldn't spot it in the source code. Maybe a suggestion? Ofc the
 C4127 should be addressed then.

 Note: the mail thread is also about in which library the solution should
 be placed. My suggestion is to put it in serialization library, with the
 rationale that 'path' is a more basic concept (comparable to string,
 vector etc.) than serialization is. It would be more natural for
 serialization to use the filesystem library than the other way around.
