Hi,

We are using boost libraries(version 1.56.0) in our application(32bit application). Our application crashes only Mac OS(10.8) platform with Bus Error 10.

$gdb ./ourapp core.xxx

Can anybody explain the root cause of the problem? This crash happens only on Mac OS.
While building boost libraries on Mac OS, do we need to set any extra flags?

NOTE: Our application runs successfully on other platforms without any problem.
