Dear All,

I already posted on the boost.test user mailing list, but as my question was to technical they forward me their ( http://lists.boost.org/boost-testing/2014/07/7692.php )
I installed/compiled boost on the BG/Q (with gcc provided by IBM) but I am confronted to a issue, the framework crashed (compute node) due to a call to the system function sigaltstack.

>From my previous post, a boost user suggests me to disable a macro into  execution_monitor.ipp line 176

https://github.com/boostorg/test/blob/boost-1.55.0/include/boost/test/impl/execution_monitor.ipp

If I disable this macro the framework works well.

Into Boost, this macro is defined between a !defined

#  if !defined(__CYGWIN__) && !defined(__QNXNTO__)
#   define BOOST_TEST_USE_ALT_STACK
#  endif

Should we add a C++ macro provided by the compiled to disable this define ?

I give a list of the macro of GCC for the BG/Q

We may add one of this to the framework to have a correct execution
