I am using the professional edition of Visual Studio 2005.

I don't understand you what you mean with this. Sorry , can you explain me a
little ?

Also in this moment I solved the problem with making explicit specialization
for the heap_allocator template , i.e I made the following :
namespace boost
{
    namespace archive
    {
        namespace detail
        {
            template<>
            struct heap_allocator<CustomClass>
            {
                 static CustomClass* invoke()
                {
                    return static_cast<CustomClass *>( new CustomClass ); //
this one uses CustomClass specific new operator
                }
            };

        }
    }
}

And I also made load/save pair for my CustomClass.

The problem is that I have a lot of such custom classes , and I should write
explicit specialization for heap_allocator template for each of them. :(
So the most easier way would be to have the compiler error fixed.
