[Boost-users] [iostream]: Simple sinks result in runtime error

Hi all,
This is my first post, so please let me know if I am doing anything 
wrong.

I am having trouble using the new iostream headers in Boost 3.3. I 
cannot get simple Sinks to function correctly. Take the following code 
for example:

namespace bio = boost::iostreams;

int main()
{	
   typedef bio::stream<bio::null_sink> nullsink;

   nullsink out;
   out << "Ignore me";
}

This code always results in a runtime assertion failure:
   /usr/local/include/boost/iostreams/detail/optional.hpp:54: failed 
assertion `initialized_'

What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Marius
