I see leaks report from Vc9 too, but since I am using Visual Leak
Detector(http://dmoulding.googlepages.com/vld) at the same time and it
reports no leak. I just ignore the Vc9 warning.

 

I trust VLD because, in a previous release of Boost(1.34?), VC8 reported
a leak in boost.thread, which actually was not(the memory was
dynamically allocated and not reclaimed intentionally, but not
increasing throughout the lifetime, thus not leaking ). Anyway, the
author  of boost.thread later patched the code to removed the warning.

 

Since the boost.thread was re-written by another writer in 1.35, I
amsuspecting  this is the same case as before. However, I have no time
to check it. Did you use boost.thread in your code?
