I am using boost 1.39 on suse linux with gcc 4.2.1 and using a debug build.<br>In order to rationalize the long compile times, I was attempting to split a file<br>into multiple translation units. When I ran my tests, they all passed, but then<br>
crashed with a memory fault.<br clear="all"><br>Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.<br>[Switching to Thread 0xb7cd26d0 (LWP 21897)]<br>0xb7d40a08 in strcmp () from /lib/libc.so.6<br>(gdb) bt<br>#0  0xb7d40a08 in strcmp () from /lib/libc.so.6<br>

that most of serialisation test all appear in a single file, hence these kinds of issues can easily be missed.<br>Is there any work around to this problem ? <br><br>   Best regards,<br>Ta,<br>    Avi<br><br>
