Yes, explicit wchar_t was introduced for older msvc compiler. Obsolete 
nowadays. 

My best guess is the /D_STLP_DEBUG define which enables enhanced debugging 
magic (iterator validation etc.) which might not be binary compatible with 
Boost. Try to add "define=_STLP_DEBUG" on your commandline an see if this 
helps.  

And maybe look up /GR vs. /GS  and most probably  /MDd vs.  /MTd 

Yours,

Jürgen
