Your error message indicates that there is some other native code
that is causing a problem (perhaps your serialized object refers to a
DLL/SO?). I think you might want to investigate that first.
For reading serialized object from one JVM in another version the
JavaDocs seem to imply that it should happen without a problem. 1.3 should
be able to read 1.1.6 streams without any additional processing, according
to the JavaDocs for the ObjectStreamConstant's PROTOCOL_VERSION_1 field.
Also, ObjectOutputStream has a useProtocolVersion that can make 1.2/1.3
write files in the 1.1 format.
