I tried building smart_ptr_test.cpp using the following command:

just to make sure I had control of the optimization level.

This command line is wrong. You must use both the -pthread and -D_REENTRANT options when building multithreaded programs with g++ on IA64. Regrettably Boost.Build did not include -D_REENTRANT in this case prior to version 1.33.1, since it is implied by -pthread on most architectures (so much for portability of GCC!). This error may or may not be responsible for the failures. Ben.
