A few days ago I started using this code on Ubuntu and kept getting segmentation faults with random values being returned for boost::unit_test::framework::master_test_suite().argc
I managed to get rid of this problem by changing the included header to #include
I have seen the description here: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_48_0/libs/test/doc/html/utf/compilation/dire.... However, I am not quite able to follow why this problem occurred on Ubuntu (with system boost library) when I was still linking against the precompiled library (version 1.58).
Generally those sorts of problems occur when you use a different version of the headers than the prebuilt libraries. Check your include and lib paths at build time to see whether it's finding a different version than you're expecting (eg. finding a local Boost instead of system Boost, or vice versa). You can also run ldd on the executable to see which version of the Boost shared libraries it's trying to load at runtime and whether this is the one you expect or not.
