Well from what I know Boost.MPI contains only MPI-1 functions (but refer to the boost mailing list for support http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users); so Intercommunicators are not managed by the Boost.MPI library, and you have to use the stardard MPI functions.
So, by now, I think it's not possible to send a user defined serializable object through an intercommunicator.
