[C++-sig] boost.python coredump in debug mode..?

[Bjorn Pettersen]

I'm working through the tutorial introduction, and I'm getting a strange
coredump in a debug build. I'm at the struct World example with a
constructor:

>>> import hello
>>> x = hello.World('hi')
>>> x.greet()
'hi'
>>> hello.World('hi') # if I remove this I don't get a coredump
<hello.World object at 0x0089E748>
>>> x.greet()
[coredump]

The exact message is "Debug Assertion Failed! File: dbgheap.c Line 1044
Expression _CrtIsValidHeapPointer(pUserData)". I'm using msvc6 on winxp
and the release version works fine. Am I doing something wrong?
