I've had real trouble isolating a minimal set of code to reproduce this.
It appears to be related to the static local instance:
__PURE_APPDOMAIN_GLOBAL static std::locale::_Locimp *global_locale = 0; //
pointer to current locale
being deleted once for *each loaded DLL*. When I Release() a COM component
in a separate DLL, the DLL is unloaded and calls tidy_global() deleting
global_locale. Later the EXE terminates which again tries to delete
global_locale causing an access violation.
Unfortunately, I'm nowhere near a small set of code for repro yet :(

P.S. As you advised, I compiled my own version of ICU. Because they only
ship an MSVC9 project with version 4.2 (why do projects to that?!) I've
downgraded to 4.0.
