Could you provide the exact error message, including any backtraces? If you
get a similar error under valgrind, also provide complete error message from
it.

This is non-starter. You should use MT versions of everything. Please make sure
you link to MT versions of *every* boost library, and that every source file
in your project is compiled with the -pthread option. Only then see if the
issue reproduces.
