I've seen these these errors as well at one point or another but never could 
quite find out what the issue is. I've only seen this on relatively new 
operating systems and was hoping that I could avoid these errors by just 
upgrading the Threading Building Blocks and Boost. I've done the former last 
night, and hope to get around to doing Boost sometime soon.

One thing that surprises me is that the FETools::compute_embedding_matrices 
function uses tasks (handled by the TBB) whereas the tests you cite use 
threads (handled by Boost). I don't know where the connection is.

So in essence I'm afraid I'm not of much help. Try if the TBB upgrade helped 
some, otherwise I'll put the Boost upgrade at the top of my list.

Best
