Steven, Ok, thanks. I was just wondering about that. I guess I will have to go back to debugging it on my embedded PowerPC with gcc and Eclipse. I will try the same tests on the PowerPC. Thanks, Robert

I was able to compile and run my app on Windows 7. Debugging using Visual Studio 2008 and using Boost 1.43.0 with the patch from https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4257
The value of l at line 56 of boost/archive/impl/basic_binary_archive.ipp is I = 369098752;

indicating that you're trying to read the archive on a little endian machine, when it was written on a big endian machine.
file_signature = "" Line 56: if(l == std::strlen(BOOST_ARCHIVE_SIGNATURE())) { Fails! Line 70: if(file_signature != BOOST_ARCHIVE_SIGNATURE()) is true so, the archive_exception::invalid_signature is thrown on line 73.
On my Window 7 PC, sizeof(size_t) == 4 sizeof(library_version_type) could not find definition of library_version_type
It's boost::archive::library_version_type defined in boost/archive/basic_archive.hpp
sizeof(int) == 4 sizeof(long) == 4 sizeof(float) == 4 sizeof(double) == 8
