Hi,

I just compiled our program with boost 1.39, upgraded from 1.38.
Now on exit I get a crash, (unhandled exception: stack overflow).
If I look at the call stack, it's filled with 
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_shortcut::~void_caster_shortcut()  Line 88    C++
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_shortcut::`scalar deleting destructor'()  + 0xf bytes    C++
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster::recursive_unregister()  Line 207 + 0x28 bytes    C++
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_shortcut::~void_caster_shortcut()  Line 88    C++
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_shortcut::`scalar deleting destructor'()  + 0xf bytes    C++
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster::recursive_unregister()  Line 207 + 0x28 bytes    C++
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_shortcut::~void_caster_shortcut()  Line 88    C++
     Scene.dll!boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_shortcut::`scalar deleting destructor'()  + 0xf bytes    C++

compiler: ms visual c++ 2008
boost 1.39.0

I have a whole lot of classes that are registered with BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT,
and saved through a shared_ptr to a base class. If I remove the exports, start and quit the application, I don't get a crash.

It was working fine in 1.37 and 1.38. (from 1.33.1 on in fact)

Has  anybody seen this before or any ideas?

thx,
Filip Peters
