Starting with this morning's run, the Win32 regression test compiler status 
reports will now be available at their permanent location.  See
http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-win32-index.html

Because the cs-win32-links.html is fairly large (392k), a .zip file (49k) 
with all the reports is also available: 
http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/win32.zip

Of all the reports, the one I find most useful is 
http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-win32-diff.html, which 
shows test results that have changed recently in a larger font.

Looking at it today, we see that yesterday's function changes broke 
function_test for several compilers, and some integer related warnings got 
cleared (in several tests).

I consider the click-through to the compiler, linker, and run messages to 
be a great success. It really makes it easy to inspect failures.

It takes a lot of behind the scenes magic, which isn't quite 100% 
foolproof.  For example, test_thread for gcc isn't reporting any messages 
for the failure.  That's because the run test is hanging, and I'm having to 
manually kill the process.  test_thread for Intel is also a bit confused; 
the .dll isn't being found, so I'm having to manually clear a dialog box 
that pops up.  That test is shown as a change, because yesterday I ran it 
after manually moving the .dll to somewhere it would be found, and the test 
worked.
