Martin Wille posted about this a couple of days ago (http://lists.boost.org/boost-testing/2005/05/1216.php), but I'm afraid it could have passed unnoticed.
Some tests from Boost.(Assign|Range|PointerContainer) have the following layout
#include<...>
using namespace std; using namespace boost;
...
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>
having the using directives before boost/test/unit_test.hpp is AFAICS illegal and does indeed cause problems with GCC 3.4.x and GCC 4.x, see for instance http://tinyurl.com/8payc
That's a libstdc+ bug which has been fixed in GCC's CVS. (The problem is revealed because of the using directives before the header, which are legal, but can be dangerous)
I cannot test it, but I guess it suffices to move all the includes before any using directive. This will probably clear up dozens of tests, including some toolsets that are currently marked as unusable.
