So basically this is a non-failure. I suppose I could bump up the loop
count...or you could get a slower machine ;-)
I see. In light of this, isn't it better to change the test from "<" to 
"<="?
Well I've considered that in the past when this has come up, but always 
decided against it on the thought that I would rather see the error if the 
clock didn't actually increment correctly.  So I would be worried if the 
sequence was something like:

0
0
0
0
0
10

If you have a minute, change the for loop in 
test/posix_time/testmicrosec_time_clock.cpp

    for (int j=0; j<100000; j++)
     {
       // some systems loop too fast so "last is less" tests fail

maybe make 100000 into 500000 and see if the test passes.
