Comment (by Dmitry Shesterkin <dfb@…>):

 No, it hasn't. The current archive_flags enum doesn't contain
 '''skip_unknown_tail_tags'''
 https://github.com/boostorg/serialization/blob/develop/include/boost/archive/basic_archive.hpp#L237
 You can apply this patch locally and rebuild the library.

  '''ramey''', does patch have any issues? I'm happy to change it according
 to your concerns. Also, it doesn't change a library behavior if the flag
 is not set
