Re: [boost] BOOST_HAS_PTHREADS, BOOST_HAS_SCHED_YIELD tests in config_test not strict enough

This isn't particularly odd or surprising. But I think that config_test ought to fail on these platforms, for the same reason my tests fail. The reason the test passes is because boost_has_pthreads.ipp and boost_has_sched_yield.ipp are too permissive;

The tests are indeed too permissive... but the real reason is that config_test is always run with <threading>multi, so the default configuration is never tested. Is this correct? Most of our other tests do not use <threading>multi, so it seems reasonable to run config_test in this mode as well (in addition to the existing <threading>multi run).

Ah, I'll add another build variant for that test. John.
