Oh, I missed this somehow.

OK. Thorsten, could you tell us what's up with the crashes?
--------------------------------

The first is solved by non executing this long-haired code

    typedef vector<int>                   score_type;
    typedef map<string,score_type>        team_score_map;
    typedef std::pair<string,score_type>  score_pair;
    team_score_map team_score;
    insert( team_score )( "Team Foo",    list_of(1)(1)(0) )
                        ( "Team Bar",    list_of(0)(0)(0) )
                        ( "Team FooBar", list_of(0)(0)(1) );
    BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL( team_score.size(), 3u );
    BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL( team_score[ "Team Foo" ][1], 1 );
    BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL( team_score[ "Team Bar" ][0], 0 );

for msvc.

the second is simply that conversion operators don't work properly leading to
the crash...I don't
know exactly why, but applying ()()()().to_container( c ) to all lists fixed
the crash.

both have been comitted
