I have linux development environment with g++ 3.4.6, boost 1.47 (latest) and Insure++.
Before I added boost everything was compiling fine. After I tried to compile simple test using boost header only libraries I get this:

Without Insure++ it compiles just fine. Unlucky I cannot change compiler to new one because of internal project structure.
Any idea what is the real problem and how I can solve this?
/edit
I read somewhere that problems of that kind could be caused by incorrect forward declarations in the boost itself. So I added to my test before boost headers:
#define BOOST_DETAIL_NO_CONTAINER_FWD
And now it doesn’t report any problems, but crashing completely during the compilation:

Actually I get the confirmation from Parasoft that I found a bug.
They will try to fix this, issue is already created.
