Comment (by Balint SZENTE <balint@…>):

 Actually that's what I'm doing now.

 To answer your question... I usually use release version of 3rd party
 libraries when I develop a program, because I'm fond of ''production''
 builds, not the debug ones. However, I realize that Boost is massively
 header implemented making the compiler's job significantly harder.

 I made the bug report to notify this behavior with Microsoft Visual C++,
 because I could not decide whether this is ''normal'' or not, taking into
 account the fact that on Linux and Max OS X they work well. I did not
 expected the debug and release builds to be incompatible in such a way
 that they might result even in crash. Ideally they should be perfectly
 interchangeable from ABI point of view.
