I think the main reason is that Boost Serialization doesn't track
pointers to the primitives. So I have a feeling you want to use
BOOST_STRONG_TYPEDEF (or whatever it is) and use a vector of those things.
Then #include <boost/serialization/vector.hpp> and ar & vec_of_ptrs
If I am not mistaken, I think the magic should take over from there.
