 > I'm also on 1.46.1. You just have to update boost/interprocess,
 boost/intrusive and boost/move (which is new) to the trunk version in
 order to use it. No need to update anything else yet. Currently there is
 one open issue to make it work: the namespace conflict. If you want to
 resolve it manually, you need to remove the comment from "union
 internal_type" in boost/interprocess/offset_ptr.hpp. Then you have to
 replace every "detail::" with "::boost::detail::" in aligned_storage.hpp
 (the patch that I suggested in comment 4 and also on the mailing list).

 First all, thanks to this patch, whoever did it, I really appreciate their
 work, it helps me a lot.

 I tested in my application, it works great. testing includes:
 * windows_shared_memory
 * message queue
 * managed_windows_shared_memory
 ** create named item
 ** raw allocate

 By the way, I didn't change anything relating to the namespace issue, it
 passed compiling and worked great.
