The example is basically the same example that was posted earlier:
Test1.cpp:
#include "stdafx.h"

#define BOOST_TEST_MAIN Yes  // Remove this line and we stop working

#include <boost/test/execution_monitor.hpp>
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE(foo1)

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(foo1case)
{
     BOOST_CHECK(4 == 4);
}

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE_END()
Test2.cpp
#include "stdafx.h"

#include <boost/test/execution_monitor.hpp>
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

#define BOOST_TEST_MODULE Yeah

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE(foo2)

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(foo2case)
{
    BOOST_CHECK(4 == 4);
}

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE_END()

        Now when you link to the static version of the lib you get this:

1>libboost_unit_test_framework-vc90-mt-gd-1_38.lib(unit_test_main.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "class boost::unit_test::test_suite * __cdecl init_unit_test_suite(int,char * * const)" (?init_unit_test_suite@@YAPAVtest_suite_at_unit_test_at_boost@@HQAPAD_at_Z) referenced in function _main

Project is a simple Visual Studio 2008 one using static version of boost:
