Hi all, while patching the interprocess library (see ticket #5230) we found a namespace conflict in aligned_storage.hpp. The source refers to the (local) namespace "detail::". In the context of interprocess, this could be resolved to "boost::detail" or "boost::interprocess::detail", causing an ambiguity. I suggest to use the absolute namespace in aligned_storage, i.e., every "detail::" is replaced with "::boost::detail::" (see below for the patch). Are there any arguments against this? If nobody protests, Ion would apply the patch.
