Can't deserialize serialized data

General Usage
1

I am running a serialize/deserialize pair in 0.5.0, and deserializing fails with the error message below.

julia>  open(joinpath("00002_dump.jls"), "w") do io
        serialize(io, matched_data)
        end

julia>  dd = open(deserialize, joinpath(BASEDIR, "00002_dump.jls"), "r")

The data is huge, but I can try to create an MWE if necessary. The data in question is a Dict{Date,Dict{Int64,Array{T,1}}}, could that T be the problem?

Yes, it is the T. MWE:

function generate(T)
    dd = Dict{Int,Dict{Int,T}}()
    for i in 1:10
        dd[i] = Dict{Int,T}()
        for j in 1:10
            dd[i][j] = rand(Int,10)
        end
    end
    dd
end

function roundtrip(data)
    io = IOBuffer(true, true)
    serialize(io, data)
    seekstart(io)
    deserialize(io)
end

roundtrip(generate(Vector{Int})) # OK
roundtrip(generate(Vector))     # fails

Should I open an issue?
