The following patch to Boost.test clears the serialisation lib failures with VC6 see : http://tinyurl.com/y3qpqf

OK to commit (release branch only: I assume cvs HEAD no longer supports VC6 anyway)?

Hmm - not quite true. Failures in the HEAD are due to one of the following. a) stuff that always failed due to features of the VC 6 compiler. b) new version of binary archives doesn't work with VC 6 c) support for boost test is deprecated with this (I think?) in the HEAD. I believe that any failures other than the above are artifacts of boost test. Robert Ramey
