To say this another way, there is never an unnamed namespace; any namespace for which you do not specify a name is effectively given a randomly generated name. That means each time you include a header file with an "unnamed" namespace, you are creating a separate instance of everything in that namespace.
Which by itself is not a problem, unless it is used in the definition of yet another class, defined in a header and _not_ inside unnamed namespace. This another class, when #included from different TUs, becomes defined differently in different TUs, hence ODR violation. Regards, Arkadiy

Are there any problems with unnamed namespace usage within Boost.Test?
Using unnamed namespace inside a header represents a potential ODR violation. See if you have this kind of usage.
