I posted an update on the Crypto++ mailing list: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/cryptopp-users/qGIdqp3MIgg

#85 appears to be on the way to fixing this bug, but it is somewhat dissatisfying since I don't know _exactly_ why #85 fixes it.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

This bug was always very hard to reproduce, but at one point I claimed that disabling asm fixed it. Therefore, now that we've landed #85, I'm going to close this ticket as, uh, ... fixed.
