I removed the extra BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID(bus_stop, "bus_stop"), and unfortunately, it core dumped in the same place.

I'll look at it more carefully later. Note that the BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID(bus_stop, "bus_stop") should be superfluous since an instance of an abstract class cannot be created. Try removing this and see if it works. Let me know what happens. If that fixes it - I would like to know. Robert Ramey
