FYI: Related research is at
http://rrr.jin.gr.jp/rwiki?cmd=view;name=Marshal

See
http://rrr.jin.gr.jp/rwiki?cmd=view;name=Marshal%3A%3AUT-Result
how xmlrpc4r and yamlrb (and soap4r, etc) marshals/unmarshals
Ruby's native types.

yamlrb will be able to support Ruby's native types
as same as soap4r/CVS does if you want.  But I heard
that YAML/yamlrb is rethinking its type system and I am
thinking that you won't support to avoid complexity.
