Please, could you try with trunk?

I suspect that I don't set the limit correctly. I have do

ulimit -v 200

and no error is signaled on trunk.

BTW, what -v do on your system. It set the virtual memory on mine. Could you send me the result of ulimit -a?

Hello,

I have encounter the same problem with:

ulimit -Sd 450000 -Sm 450000 -Sv 450000 ; gdb ./bin/a.out

Using boost lib 1.53.0 an CXX_FLAGS="-march=corei7 -O2 -pipe"

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Some advice or patch indication would be awesome.

FYI not reproducible on this rev, getting well SIGABRT.
