+//   architectures use IEEE-standard representations of floating-point numbers.\r
+//   Therefore a binary dump is not necessarily portable between platforms.\r
+//   Solving this is (currently) beyond the scope of the STLplus project.\r
+\r
+//   If you want to be strictly portable to all platforms, do not dump/restore float\r
