[Please do not mail me a copy of your followup] boost@lists.boost.org spake the secret code <52C6B3EA.40208@pabigot.com> thusly:
This says it documents version 1.22, but I can't tell whether that's just because Boost.Test isn't independently versioned and the last content update was in Boost 1.22.
It's the version of Boost.Test -- I think this should be 1.21 instead of 1.22, however. See http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/ I originally was working from trunk, but there's a whole bunch of stuff that is in trunk that isn't in release so with this snapshot I rescynchronized to the release branch.
The develop branch has over 200 changes that have accumulated since 2009, and as I understand how Boost releases are done it's this branch that gets the most road time, even though it isn't what gets released.
I really don't yet understand what is going on with this library in terms of how it is being maintained and enhanced. Unfortunately the maintainer is not very responsive.
Or maybe those changes don't actually affect users at all, though the develop branch has commits that discuss a new implementation. I'm still pretty confused about how Boost.Test evolves.
