Hi to all,

 I've just uploaded a new version of Shmem. Changes and new features:

New feature:

-> Apart from shared memory, all Shmem classes (containers, allocators, 
utilities) can be used to allocate all resources in a user defined fixed 
size buffer. This way, all resources will be allocated in a single buffer 
that could be easily serialized (Thanks to Martin Adrian for the idea).

Changes:

-> Bug fixes in code, comments and documentation
-> Passed all tests in linux (suse 9.2-gcc 3.4.1) (except for 
shared_read_write_mutex that fails)
-> Changed allocator swapping to the recommended solution in the paper 
"Issue 431: Swapping containers with unequal allocators"
-> Some corrections for exception-safe constructors in containers (not that 
I think they are perfect but much better than before).
-> Some EBO optimization in templatized mutexes when using null_mutex.

Thanks to Pavel for his comments and advices. Regards,

/Ion
