Thanks for the report!

This problem has been reported before (by private email). All I know for 
sure is that the same code works fine with GCC3.4.2 (and other 
compilers). The only thread you'll find by googling for 
"__gnu_cxx::new_allocator<_Tp>::destroy(_Tp*)" suggests that the GCC std 
allocator was changed in 4.0. Maybe Boost.Statechart makes use of a 
corner-case that is not covered in GCC4.0 allocator regression tests. 
Unfortunately I don't currently have the time to track this down. For 
now, I can only suggest to replace your copy of statechart.hpp with the 
one attached. It partially disables state_machine custom allocator 
support. Please let me know whether that works for you.

HTH & Regards,
