Problem with HOGDescriptor (Bug #2695)

I am running OpenCV 2.4.3(Compiled from homebrew with tbb/opencl enabled) on Mac OS X 10.8.
I am trying to use the cv::HOGDescriptor to detect pedestrians in a video sequence.

This is the code I am using to do the detection and paint a bounding box.

cv::VideoCapture input("file.avi");
      assert(input.isOpened());
      cv::HOGDescriptor body;
      assert(body.load("hogcascade_pedestrians.xml"));
      cv::Mat frame, gray;
      cv::namedWindow("video");

while (input.read(frame)) {
        vector<cv::Rect> rects;
        cv::cvtColor(frame, gray, cv::COLOR_RGB2GRAY);
        cv::equalizeHist(gray, gray);

body.detectMultiScale(gray, rects);
        for (unsigned int i=0;i<rects.size();i++) {
          cv::rectangle(frame, cv::Point(rects[i].x, rects[i].y),
              cv::Point(rects[i].x+rects[i].width, rects[i].y+rects[i].height),
              cv::Scalar(255, 0, 255));
        }
        cv::imshow("video", frame);
      }

However, when the execution reaches the line `body.detectMultiScale(gray, rects);`, I get the an error and the whole application crashes

libc++abi.dylib: terminate called throwing an exception
    [1]    92156 abort      ../bin/DetectPedestrians

What is going wrong? I cannot seem to get any new information from the `gdb` or `lldb` outputs. I am compiling with the code with a CMake build, so I guess this isn't a problem with the linking.

Here is a stack trace from the thread that crashed -

On a Linux system(OpenCV 2.4.3 compiled with TBB support), the same code gives me an error saying -
