BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(C) is used. a static C exists. DLL 2 has concrete class D which inherits from virtual B. BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(D) is used. a static D exists and will be instantiated when the library is loaded. main.cpp - contains an instantiation of D to make main.exe depend on both DLL 1 and DLL 2. this same test passes on UNIX. It's as if on windows it is trying to register B twice. Taking out the assert (as was the case in all previous boost versions) makes things work ok."
