#3246: Patch for compatibility with STLport

     Type:  Bugs                  |      Status:  new    
Milestone:  Boost 1.40.0          |   Component:  test   
  Version:  Boost Release Branch  |    Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:  test stlport          |  
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 Boost.Test doesn't compile with GCC 4.3.3 when STLPort 5.2.1 is used with
 string template expressions enabled. There are two problems, actually:

 1. STLPort uses "long long" type internally, but due to "warnings=all"
 flag in the Jamfile.v2 all such places are flagged as errors by GCC
 ("error: ISO C++ 1998 does not support ‘long long’"). Removing the flag or
 changing it to "warnings=on" solves the problem.

 2. When template expressions feature is used std::string concatenation
 does not result in another std::string object but a temporary object of
 some internal type. Therefore unit_test_parameters.ipp compilation fails
 everywhere where the result of string concatenation is passed as a
 function argument.

 The attached patch fixes both problems.
