Well, it is a question of which library. The test program 
indirect_iterator_example.cpp lives in the libs/utility tree. The target is 
in the libs/iterator tree. The reporting program right now assumes the test 
program location determines the library name. We can change that, but that 
may be fixing the symptom rather than the cause.

A better solution might be to move the iterator example files to the 
iterators library (libs/iterator/...) hierarchy.
