Very few of the Boost regression tests are meant to be run in "release
mode" (i.e. with NDEBUG defined).  Many in fact use <cassert>.  I
don't think it's reasonable to expect any particular result from Boost
tests run in this way, nor is it reasonable to expect library authors
to adjust their tests at this late date.  I'm sure the number of
affected tests goes way beyond the two you've found.
