I spent some time debugging this, as the behavior was very random:
sometimes messages would appear, sometimes they wouldn't and at some
point it would stop working at all.

I wrote a test application that would create a new entry in the menu every 
500ms, and when trying to run it I got some memory errors in the 
indicator-messages-service:
*** Error in 
`/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/indicator-messages/indicator-messages-service': 
corrupted double-linked list: 0x001419b0 ***

and sometimes:

*** Error in `/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/indicator-messages/indicator-
messages-service': malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x013b6ee8 ***

So, the steps to reproduce:

1) Compile and run this test program for the device: 
http://ubuntuone.com/3XTnbxnqU0U8SYuiIDFIYH
2) Start the indicator-messages-service manually (to see the printed messages)
3) run the test program.
