Comment (by anonymous):

 I've tracked the cause of this - it's because you have code using
 singleton_pool from a globally-scoped thread_specific_ptr.  This then runs
 into order-of-destruction issues, with the global pool's destructor being
 called before that of the thread_specific_ptr's (which gets called
 ''very'' late due to the way it's implemented).

 In general, this one's going to be very hard to fix, but I'll think about
 it ;-)

 John.
