upgrade from boost 1.48 to 1.49 has filesystem path Access violation reading location 0x0000000

Question

My unit tests fail after upgrading boost to 1.49. Same time place:

Stack:

msvcr100d.dll!_initerm
dynamic initializer for Foo::ourTempFolder

where ourTempFolder is a static class variable of boost::filesystem::path.

Null location is in:

anonymous namespace::convert_aux() which the comment says converting const char* to wstring

I have switched back to 1.48, rebuilt solution, everything fine. Upgrade to 1.49, rebuilt, same problem.
