I have this code, which does a simple recursive directory iteration and prints each directory entry and then does it again (http://coliru.stacked-crooked.com/a/0bfab95a513ebed8 ):

#include <boost/filesystem.hpp>
#include <boost/range/iterator_range.hpp>
#include <iostream>

namespace fs = boost::filesystem;

int main()
{
  try
  {
    const auto iter = fs::recursive_directory_iterator{ "." };
    for( const auto& entry : boost::make_iterator_range( iter, {} ) )
    {
      std::cout << entry << "\n";
    }

    // Rinse and repeat
    std::cout << "\n";

    for( const auto& entry : boost::make_iterator_range( iter, {} ) ) // CRASH -- Replace 'iter' with 'fs::recursive_directory_iterator{"."}' and it will work.
    //for( const auto& entry : boost::make_iterator_range( fs::recursive_directory_iterator{"."}, {} ) )
    {
      std::cout << entry << "\n";
    }
  }
  catch( const std::exception& e )
  {
    std::cerr << e.what() << "\n";
  }
  catch( ... )
  {
    std::cerr << "Unknown exception.\n";
  }
}
