That I did not try, but I just tried another, simpler program that does the
communication the same way. It worked perfectly, and even showed the buffer
size to be bigger (as almost all the messages were sent simultaneously) and
they were processed line by line, as intended.

I'm now totally at loss what could cause that.

The most noticeable difference between the programs is that the non-working
one is compiled with the MPI (openmpi) compiler (which adds some libraries
and calls the GCC) instead of only gc++.

Confused, getting a headache,
