Comment(by slava_at_[hidden]):

 Yes, it appears to be a problem with boost::optional. The following simple
 test fails if compiled with struct member alignment=1 or 2 bytes, and
 everything is OK when alignment is set to 4 or more bytes:

 {{{
 #include <boost/optional.hpp>

 boost::optional<int> test_func(int i) {
         if(i) return boost::optional<int>(1234);
         else return boost::optional<int>();
 }


 int main(int argc, char* argv[])
 {
         test_func(1);
         return 0;
 }
 }}}

 The errors are:
