Comment (by apolukhin):

 That is not the only place where the problem occurs. There are several
 more places, where unary negation occurs, and they also need fixes
 (however they occur only when min/max value for a number is casted). Fast
 fixes did not help, because even some functions from std namespace trigger
 coredump.

 I am afraid, that this issue won't be fixed in boost 1.53, but I'll try to
 find a good solution for the problem till 1.54
