Comment(by warren.seine_at_[hidden]):

 Same behavior experienced with Boost.Filesystem trying to run
 "simple_ls.cpp" (from Boost.Filesystem tutorials).

 Using:
  - Mac OS X 10.5.6
  - g++ 4.3.3
  - Boost 1.38

 Here is the stack trace:
 {{{
 Breakpoint 1, 0x94f824a9 in malloc_error_break ()

 boost::filesystem::initial_path<boost::filesystem::basic_path<std::string,
 boost::filesystem::path_traits> > ()
 #12 0x00001a4b in main ()
 }}}

 Please note that the bug seems to be specific to Mac OS X.
