Comment(by Severin Kacianka <severin@…>):

 ah I just figured out, that I forgot to rebuild boost.
 {{{
  bjam cxxflags=-fshort-enums --prefix=/home/severin/software/boost_test
 install -a
 }}}

 (Note the -a at the end)

 now the compilation with -fshot-enums works fine (but of course it crashes
 if I compile it without -fshort-enums).
 Sorry that the problem was so trivial - I am very new to C++ and did not
 expect that a compiler flag can cause a segfault ;-)
 Thank you for your solution!
