Comment (by atompkins):

 Hmm, I understand what you are saying.  Normally the serialization library
 would use specific functions written for a class.  I do not believe that
 uuid_io.hpp is needed when using a binary archive.[[BR]]
 I wanted to make uuid a primitive, i.e. BOOST_CLASS_IMPLEMENTATION(uuid,
 boost::serialization::primitive_type) (see
 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_48_0/libs/serialization/doc/index.html).
 I now wonder if this may have been a bad decision.  Or maybe I should have
 done it via boost::serialization::is_bitwise_serializable.
 My goal was to use only 16 bytes when serializing to a binary archive.
