Re: [Boost-users] Building and testing smart pointersusing HP-UX/G++

...

Again, this is with gcc 3.4.3, and the machine is an Itanium 2 workstation running HPUX 11.22.

Itanium? Can you try the same test with -DBOOST_SP_USE_PTHREADS? This could be a problem in the IA64 implementation (boost/detail/sp_counted_base_gcc_ia64.hpp).

Reproduced on this HP testdrive machine: td176.testdrive.hp.com And as you suggested -DBOOST_SP_USE_PTHREADS fixes the problem. John.
