Very likely you are using something like shared_ptr or regex that make themselves thread safe when BOOST_HAS_THREADS is defined, if this is the case then adding either: <define>BOOST_DISABLE_THREADS=1 or <threading>multi To the build requirements of the test will fix that. If you don't depend on any boost lib that uses threads, then I would guess that the culprit would be the std lib used (probably synchronises it's iostream code somewhere), in which case you're going to need to use the second option above.
