Comment (by dominik.ernst@…):

 I just found this Bug-report, when I searched for information about
 strange behaviour.
 Following Code

 {{{
 cout << model.c_str() << "  ";
 cout << model << std::endl;
 }}}

 results in

 BS-2020SjB�GmA  BS-2020S

 (the original string is BS-2020S, model is a basic_string)
 which looks like a missing null-termination.

 Linux Mint 13, gcc 4.6, boost 1.47
