Subject: [boost] invalid null pointer error in serialization with MSVC2008

Hi,
I am getting a very strange runtime error using boost serialization library
with MSVC2008.
I called the following template in my program.
template <class T>
void loadData(std::string fileName, T &t)
{
std::ifstream ifs(fileName.c_str());
boost::archive::text_iarchive ia(ifs);
t.clear();
ia >> t;
ifs.close();
}
it gets an assertion failed when running into boost::archive::text_iarchive
ia(ifs);
Debug Assertion failed: invalid null pointer
Here is the stack frame:

It happens when the text_iarchive class constructs, so I am sure it's
nothing to do with the serialize function of T, but something between boost
and std::ifstream.
The wierd thing is I didn't come across this program at the first time. It
appears suddenly during development. If I separate the serialization code to
a single cpp file, it doesn't have any problem at all.
By the way, I am intergrating Qt and Ogre with boost by the way, but that
seems not to be quite helpful to identify this problem. Any ideas about
that?
