I'd consider an upgrade to 2.2.3
Nothing changed after the upgrade, apparently :(
Martin, you're running the tests with libstdc++ debug mode enabled, is that right?
Yes, that's right.
Could this be causing some problem?
Interesting idea. The debug mode often finds problems with the use of iterators.
I'd expect to see an exception thrown, but could the Python machinery be swallowing that somehow?
Yes, we've seen similar symptoms with Boost.Python at other occasions. However, the case I've examined doesn't show symptoms of an exception being thrown (see below). I examined the builtin_conversions tests. I think there also is a problem with Boost.Test. For reasons I do not understand there's no other output than the exit status in the .output file created by Boost.Test (see http://tinyurl.com/6hom7 [1]). However, if I run the tests manually then there is other output, too. This is the output I get when I run the test manually: running... LONG_LONG supported, testing...
