  Version:  Boost 1.55.0                         |  circular_buffer
 Keywords:  circular buffer interprocess shared  |   Severity:  Regression
  memory allocator                               |
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
 Apparently, because of the use of "placement new" instead of
 "m_alloc.construct()" used in previous versions, Circular Buffer can no
 longer be used with allocators which return a pointer type different from
 void*. In particular, shared memory allocators provided by the
 Interprocess library result in a compile-time error. This seems to be a
 serious regression.
