Comment(by anonymous):

 Thanks for this bug, it saves us a lot of time to trace a bug: when the
 applications are running for a few hrs, they won't communicate correctly
 with each other if the child process is created dynamically.

 I have a simple fix for this, only works for windows system.
 Try to use the windows_shared_memory instead of shared_memory_object. It
 works as changing the system time, not test on leave it there for a few
 hrs.
 If anyone interested in the changes:
 replace
 detail::managed_open_or_create_impl< windows_shared_memory, false>
 m_shmem;
 with
 detail::managed_open_or_create_impl<shared_memory_object> m_shmem;
 and change the header include. comment out the message_queue::remove.

 Hope this could help some1 on Windows to work around this problem by now.
