Could you please post the exact compiler command line you are using to 
compile and link one of the python tests? Are you using v41 of the 
compiler, too?

I'm using the out-of-the-box current boost state. And yes, this includes 
-model ansi. But I'm pretty sure that this isn't the problem because I 
always had these errors since I first tried boost.python, I just never got 
around debugging them.
