Hi Elisha, does the number 146 in {} change if you restart the
application? If not, then try
put the line : _CrtSetBreakAlloc(146); in your code before you create
the thread. VC7.1 will break when the 146th object is created.

If I do that I end up here, in the line where the "new" is:

[mutex.inl]

inline void* new_critical_section()
{
    try
    {
        LPCRITICAL_SECTION critical_section = new CRITICAL_SECTION;
        if (critical_section == 0) throw boost::thread_resource_error();
        InitializeCriticalSection(critical_section);
        return critical_section;
    }
    catch(...)
    {
        throw boost::thread_resource_error();
    }
}

Do you have the same behavior?

I will do some tests to see if the critical section is also deleted correctly.
