Does this also apply to boost.interprocess? Is it really safe to ignore this warning and continue to use the interprocess code from within a DLL?

It's not Interprocess fault. It's a widely known issue with templates and linkage. See http://www.unknownroad.com/rtfm/VisualStudio/warningC4251.html and Microsoft's own http://support.microsoft.com/kb/168958/en-us to see what you want to do with the class and what you can do to achieve it.
