I can turn off the unittests but I’d rather this got fixed.

And no I’m not deeply versed in C++, just yet. In fact, I’d prefer sticking to C and ObjC as long as possible, even though I’ll need to bite the bullet on C++ for stuff like Bullet Library, OpenCL in many cases and more for Numerical Analysis.

It’s a known issue:

I think you need to use a combination of building with clang, building shared libs, enabling optimizations, and building the unit tests to trigger this.
