Maybe we're talking about different tests here?  Is your CVS
up-to-date?

    cd libs/utility/test
    bjam -sTOOLS=gcc test

This works on Linux with gcc-3.2 gcc-2.95.3 gcc-2.96

No wonder!  That's not the utility suite; that's the iterator_adaptors
suite.  Mostly an easy fix.  There are already replacement tests in
libs/iterator/test.
