There are failures in these libraries you maintain: python (11)

What happened here? I haven't changed anything in Boost.Python, and the error reports on the site above are inscrutable. Are you setting PYTHON_ROOT in these toolsets, by any chance?
Those are the Martin Wille tests that are failing; the OSL tests are all passing. Martin, to run the Python tests you'll probably need to build different versions of Python for the different compilers. Something in the newer GCCs causes very bad behavior when Python is built with a different compiler than Boost.Python. Doug
