I'm sorry to say I recompiled everything against Boost trunk (rev. 61561),
but the problem still persists.

I don't understand what's going on, but I doubt it's a problem directly in
void_cast.cpp. For some reason the type I described gets registered more
than once (definitely from different modules, although dynamically loaded,
none gets unloaded before the assertion). Did you change anything related to
auto-type registration?
