Question regarding wrap_base and objects created in C++

I'm running into a problem with objects derived from wrap_base and I think I
may just be missing something obvious.

I have a case where I am exporting a c++ class derived from
luabind::wrap_base into lua. I then create the object in the c++ and try and
assign it to a global variable visible to lua.

Something like the following:

M_pZoneProxy = new ZoneManagerProxy();
luabind::globals(pScript)["_World"] = m_pZoneProxy;

The code crashes/asserts in the assignment because the wrap_base contains an
uninitialized weak_ref (the private m_impl member of weak_ref is null). 

How do I initialize this value?
