In case it is obvious the iterator isn't terminating properly.  There 
are only supposed to be 3 iterations which means that either the itr++ isn't 
working correctly of the date comparison isn't working correctly.  There are 
other date comparison tests in testdate.cpp so my guess would be that itr++
has gone bad for some reason.

This (and all the rest of the failures) are an indication that the library 
hasn't been built correctly or isn't being linked because it is complaining 
about symbols built into libboost_date_time.

HTH,
