I have reported this bug here, including a simpler test case: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/3837

Good to know, thanks. Much simpler, indeed :)

and posted a (more efficient) implementation of thread_specific_ptr which doesn't have this bug here: http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=tss.hpp&directory=&
