Why should an incremental test fail in this case? If you don't know, there's a mystery waiting to be uncovered and you shouldn't be so sure that it's a false positive in this case.
This is not a compiler or library bug; it is specific to http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/RudbekAssociates-V2.html. Incremental MSVC builds at other sites work fine. I'm pretty sure that this particular problem has persisted for months now. I've tried to contact them before without success.
If you do know, you should change your test so that it can work when run incrementally.
Maybe I've set up the Boost Exception testing suite incorrectly? I doubt it, the relevant command is pretty straight-forward: run throw_exception_test.cpp helper2.cpp ; Emil Dotchevski Reverge Studios, Inc. http://www.revergestudios.com/reblog/index.php?n=ReCode On Thu, Jun 26, 2008 at 7:12 PM, David Abrahams <dave@boostpro.com> wrote:

Looking here:
http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/issues.html
There is a single msvc 8.0 failure for Boost Exception which I'm certain is because it's an incremental test. The library does work on msvc 8.
