Hi, 

I've been trying boost.interprocess v. 1.40 in a HP-UX 11.23 IA64 machine.

Firstly I tried a 64 bit compilation of the interprocess test with aCC compiler (v. A.06.15). It failed with error:  "No atomic operations implemented for this platform, sorry!".

Then I used gcc 4.1.2 and compilation did succeed.  Many tests got passed, however some failed with "boost::interprocess_exception::library_error".

Here is an output example of both cases:

Could anyone explain this error? Is it possible to overcome the problem?

Thanks in advance.
