  Version:  Boost 1.49.0                                           |    Severity:  Problem

-------------------------------------------------------------------+--------
 I've built static boost libraries under windows (Win7 64) with MinGW 3.20
 (32 bit, GCC 4.6.1) with '''BOOST_DATE_TIME_POSIX_TIME_STD_CONFIG'''
 option and threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static address-
 model=32

 Simple test like


 {{{
 #include <iostream>
 #include <boost/thread/thread.hpp>
 #include <boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp>

 using namespace std;
 using namespace boost;

 void func()
 {
     this_thread::sleep(boost::posix_time::milliseconds(5000));
 }

 int main()
 {
      thread trd(func);
     trd.join();
     cout << "wait ok" << endl;
     return 0;
 }
 }}}

 When built statically with '''date_time''' and '''thread''' libraries.

 It fails with segfault in date_time library. That happens in ctor of
 structure simple_time_rep, but I didn't dig too much. I guess the problem
 is in date_time library.

 Without flag '''BOOST_DATE_TIME_POSIX_TIME_STD_CONFIG''' it's going all
 right with timings and threads.

 I also tried flags BOOST_HAS_WINTHREADS and _REENTRANT(for MinGW) - that
 does not affect the case. BOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB was defined (to let it work
 with static libs).

 I've tested this for boost '''1.48.0''' and '''1.49.0-beta1'''. Neither
 did work.
 I asked about this problem in boost mailing lists but got no answer, so I
 post it as a possible bug.

 Sincerely, Yana A. Kireyonok
