[Boost-users] [boost][VC++ 7.1][link] Crash when linking in release

Hi all,
I experience violent crashes trying to link Boost in release.

Very simple example :

- I build Boost using bjam (all standard config, tool msvc-71)
- I create an empty MFC project with all defaults settings except for
include directories ("C:\Boost\include\boost-1_33_1") and lib directories
("C:\Boost\lib\")
- I try to execute this :

    boost::filesystem::path::default_name_check(boost::filesystem::native);
    boost::filesystem::path p;
    p = "c:\\";

The last line works as expected in Debug but crashes in release :

    Unhandled exception at 0x00402917 in testboost2.exe: 0xC0000005: Access
violation reading location 0x00000004.

It doesn't help trying to trace the code (int this case it's in
m_path_append( ) but it depends on the code being tried)

Any idea ?
Thanks in advance !
