Are construct<> and find_or_construct<> self-synchronized? For instance, can several process do the following

seg.find_construct<type>("name");

(same seg, type and name) without guarding the operation with a mutex?

Yes, all those functions are synchronized with a recursive mutex, so that the constructor of the object can use construct<> again to construct more named objects. This is (vaguely) explained here:
