Comment:

 WMI is provoking a lot of problems for Boost Interprocess users. I've
 decided to remove bootstamp use in windows to obtain kernel persistence in
 Windows. This means that windows shared memory/queues will survive to
 reboots, but this behaviour is allowed by POSIX. Using bootstamps to
 detect reboots is doing more harm than good.

 WMI is removed in Boost 1.47
