Robert changed the implementation of pointer serialization. Now different headers need to be included and different templates instantiated in the source files for any archive to be used by Boost.Serialization. This is a breaking change and none of the archives created for releases before 1.40 will work out of the box with Boost 1.40. They all will have to be rewritten.
Please can someone write something about this for the release notes?
Is this still relevant? If there's a breaking change it should be mentioned in the release notes. Daniel

this was meant as an indication that this was still relevant, because a breaking change in 1.40 was mentioned in the bug report today. (not that a bug reported today should be fixed in 1.40.) Stefan

This has been addressed in the release notes. Also I merged just this change into the release. Robert Ramey Daniel James wrote:
