Could you please provide a sample code snippet that allows to reproduce
this issue? I'm not into Boost myself and I don't want to dig through
the documentation just to be able to reproduce that. Also, the following
information would be helpful to trace back the problem:

 - Does it happen _every_ time when you execute your program? If not,
   it's quite unlikely that it's related to parallel execution.

 - (related) Does it happen as well if you don't use threads?

 - The backtrace that you've provided is not very useful. Do you have
   debugging symbols available for librrd? Do you know how to use a
   debugger to create another backtrace?

 - Did you compile RRDtool yourself? If not, where did you get it from?

Cheers,
Sebastian
