Me again. I realized I wasn't seeing the problem because I hadn't put
any strings in the vector over which you were iterating. When I do, I
can reproduce the assert. This is not a bug in xpressive, it is a bug in
your code. The problem is here:

std::tr1::bind(&apply_regex, sem_separated, td::tr1::placeholders::_1)

In this call to bind, you pass sem_separated to bind() *by value*. You
return a regex_token_iterator, which holds a reference to the
(temporary) regex object. When the temporary regex object goes away, the
regex_token_iterators are left holding dangling references.

The lifetime of a regex_token_iterator cannot exceed the lifetime of the
regex it holds.

If you change the code to ...

std::tr1::bind(&apply_regex, std::tr1::ref(sem_separated),
td::tr1::placeholders::_1)

... it works just fine.

HTH,
