 YES.

 My team has the same thoughts. Some time ago, we started our project with
 Boost 1.41, and we still can't even move to any newer version of Boost
 because of this bug.

 To everyone planning to use Boost.Serialization: don't trust this library.
 Choose something else, or just invent your own local data format. Save
 your time and nerves.

 Three years have passed and the bug is still not solved. It's a crying
 shame all this happens in such well-known and respected set of libraries
 like Boost is.
