[Boost-users] boost.serialization crash

Hi,
  I was using the boost.serialization library to my great satisfaction
on an intel machine running Linux.  I then ported the code to a MIPS
machine.  I compiled boost using bjam with a mips compiler that isn't
included in the available toolsets.
  Everything works well _until_ I try destroying the binary archives I
use.  When the destructor is called, I get a segmentation fault.  My
guess is that the serialization library relies on something else which
wasn't compiled properly.  But what?

I built boost as follows:
bjam -sTOOLS=gcc -sGXX=/usr/mips/bin/mips-linux-g++
--libdir=/usr/mips/lib/ --includedir=/usr/mips/include/
-sGCC_ROOT_DIRECTORY=/usr/mips install

I have a lib directory and an include directory under /usr/mips.

While building boost I got a whole bunch of errors, and not all the
targets were successfully built, but I had no idea what to do, so I
tried anyway...

Thanks
