Fixed libSimD compilation errors on Windows

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The following patch to src/boost/detail/pipe.hpp fixes compilation errors on 
Window platforms.  (It still doesn't link yet.  Need to fix 
FindOpenSplice.cmake later.)

Also fixed, changed a deprecated call in the linux build path in the same file. 
 (get_system_category() is deprecated.  Should use system_category() instead.)

Some more additional information regarding to use "system_category()".

Obviously, in the newer version of boost, the function 
boost::system::get_system_category() defined in boost/system/error_code.hpp is 
renamed to boost::system::system_category().  I have 1.44 and 1.40 on two 
different boxes and the 1.44 has the newer name while 1.40 uses the older name.

I confirm that this patch is needed for Boost versions >= 1.44.
For a rational see changes to the system lib 
http://www.boost.org/users/news/version_1_44_0;
"Change system_category and generic_category to functions, to conform to the 
C++0x FCD. This change may cause compile errors some user code; the fix is add 
"()" to references to system_category and generic_category, so that they become 
function calls."

However the patch does not work for Boost versions <= 1.43.
I attached a patch that works for all (well I tested 1.40, 1.43, 1.44 and 1.45) 
versions of Boost.

Boost/process is no longer part of SimD.   So  the bug is no longer valid.
