[Boost-users] boost-regex crashes in multithreaded

hi, i'm using boost regex in a multithreaded environment with os: fedora 7 boost version: 1.33.1 g++: 4.1.2 i've attached a small sample program that crashes often; but not always (once in 4-5 runs) curiously, the same program runs without any issue on fedora 8, boost 1.34.1. is there any issue using boost-regex 1.33.1 in multi-threaded environment? stack trace: #0 0x00a22402 in __kernel_vsyscall () #1 0x00b921c0 in raise () from /lib/i686/nosegneg/libc.so.6 #2 0x00b93ba1 in abort () from /lib/i686/nosegneg/libc.so.6 #3 0x07fa9540 in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler () from /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 #4 0x07fa7025 in ??
