Ok.

My best guess is that it was triggered by the fix of a performance
bug in remove_edge.

As for triggering alarms... do we have alarms that get triggered 
automatically?
Or do you mean, why didn't someone notice that the regression for
Boost.Python on VC6 started failing? Well, perhaps we should ask
whose responsibility it is to watch the Boost.Python regression logs
for VC6.

Cheers,
Jeremy
