If I build the type_traits tests so everything is up to date, and then touch say type_with_alignment.hpp, then in libs/type_traits/test do:

And for some strange reason bjam thinks there's a dependency on type_with_alignment.hpp from add_const_test, and there really isn't.

You have #include "check_type.hpp" in add_const_test.cpp, and in check_type.hpp you have #include , and from then on, you can imagine what happens.
