Comment (by ramey):

 First of all, this thread deals with a different subject.  That is it
 tries to address a problem whereby I introduced an incompatibility in
 binary_archives and we've had trouble getting over it.  If you want to
 pursue this, you should create a new trac item.

 "So, I need to solve the following problems:"

 "The new software (VS 2012) should be able to write binary boots archives
 which can still be read by our old software (VS 2008/boost 1.43)."

 I don't see why you can't using the 1.43 version of serialization with vc
 2012

 "The new software (VS 2012) should be able to read old binary archives
 written by boost 1.43."

 This should be handled using the standard versioning available in all
 versions of the library.
