 Hi there, in the function

 inline environment::environment(void)

 in the BOOST_PROCESS_WIN32_API defnition you supply the wrong pointer to
 the FreeEnvironmentStrings() function. Currently you're passing the
 pointer that was incremented to process the variable. You should be
 providing the original pointer to the heap.

 Should be:

   TCHAR* es = ::GetEnvironmentStrings();
   TCHAR* es2 = es;

   // do your iterating with es

   ::FreeEnvironmentStrings(es2);
