Created an attachment (id=5348)
 --> (http://llvm.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=5348)
self-contained source code body to reproduce the problem (except for Boost
library)

I did my best to provide a self-contained reproducible test but since the error
manifests itself when executing a Python script loading a compiled Boost.Python
extension, it's a bit tricky. So stay with me! 

I use a brain dead build script because we use SCons to build the libraries
where I encountered the problem and I did not want to introduce that dependency
to my test. The assert that fails has reliably passed every night for years
when using gcc ranging from 3.2 to 4.5, Visual Studio C++ 2008 and 2010, ICC 9
and 11, and more I forget about. So there is definitively something wrong with
the clang build. 

LLVM svn revision is 110511 (trunk).
