Please try to compile in release mode to see if it works.
If it only crashes in Debug mode then you are a victim of
the decision to have boost::python Debug link to Python release
version and the trouble that follows from this. 
See <http://www.nabble.com/-python--partially-resolved:-the-never-ending-story-
of-vc8-win32-linker-settings-desaster-td18945799.html> about the details.

Carefully check the verbose linker output to see what happens.
