Sorry, a bug in gob! DOH! The old semantics was to use PACKAGE_TYPE_BOXED
instead of Package:Boxed in 2.0.0 and earlier, but that was inconsistent.
Using PACKAGE_TYPE_BOXED there should just still work (and will also work in
the future). I fixed this in CVS and will make a new version of gob
available to fix this.
