Boost Serialization does not support writing XML attributes, and apparently doesn't support reading them either, or even ignoring them. One of the authors wrote about this here: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/serialization-How-to-serialize-as-an-XML-attribute-td2557918.html

You could pre-process the XML before loading it, using another XML library like Expat or whatever.
