I'm worried about these too. I'm also getting exception related dialog boxes during Windows smoke tests; they don't even say what program they are coming out of. Not sure if that is the same problem; I'll try to isolate one of them and report details.
Three tests are failing (and popping up an exception dialog, causing much consternation!): simple_example_5 testtz_database testlocal_time_facet Ha! These tests don't even use Boost.Test or Boost.Threads at all! The first is from the Tokenizer library, the two others from Date-Time. simple_example_5 is just an assertion failure. Looks like the change John just committed broke something:-( --Beman
