Hi,

I was having this same problem with the taglib library (another c++ 
shared library). I am 99% sure it is due to not linking using 
-enable-auto-import.
I managed to use cmake to build taglib with -enable-auto-import during 
linking when building the library, and I add it when I link to taglib 
for my programs. It works fine now whereas without that option I was 
getting the exact same error message (failed to initialise properly, 
0xc0000005) I think you need that option whenever you use gcc4.5.0 with 
c++ and shared libraries.

I've been struggling to find a way to get bjam to add 
-enable-auto-import to all it's link stages when building boost with mingw.

Can anyone help with this ?

Cheers,
Emyr
