A queue is a container adaptor not a 'real' container.  As a result, it
doesn't have the const_iterator type defined that the serialization process
wants to use to perform the serialization.  And basically short of deriving
there isn't a way of getting access to the internal container.  So I don't
think it is possible.  Is there some reason why deque won't work?
