Comment (by rcurtin):

 Ok, I'm sorry for the slow response.  I had some trouble with my VMs. :)

 The VM I have is OS X 10.7 not 10.8, and I could not reproduce the problem
 using any of the tools port made available.  I tried various versions of
 gcc (up to 4.8) and Boost 1.54 but could not reproduce the bus error.
 While I dig up a 10.8 system to test on, can I ask you to try the
 following couple of things, if you have a chance?

  * Compile against a different version of Boost
  * Is mlpack being compiled with the same compiler (g++-mp-4.8) as the
 test program?
  * Is this a hackintosh system or an actual Mac? (this *shouldn't* make a
 difference, but I suppose it could)
  * Do you have libmlpack.so present anywhere else on your system than in
 /usr/local/lib/?

 mlpack should compile fine with -std=c++11; I have not had problems doing
 that on other platforms.

 Also, I've had to modify your test program a little; 'void main()' throws
 an error; I had to replace it with 'int main()'.

 I should have a 10.8.4 box to test on soon; I'll let you know how that
 goes.  Sorry that this is taking a long time to hunt down...
