In case you don't get an answer here you might try posting on the boost spirit general mailing list. Jeff Flinn Andreas Bruckmeier wrote:

Hi out there,

after searching for the cause of segmentation faults in my program i figured out that it happens while parsing my grammar with spirit. But this happens only if i run multiple threads, with only one thread all works as expected.

I used the current boost trunk, gcc 4.1.2 and option D_REENTRANT

Does anybody have a clue what happens inside parse(...) that could cause this segfault?

Best regards Andi
