Well, all I can say that it's marked as "success" in Martin's 1.31 results:

    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="intel-7.1-stdlib-native-linux" result="success"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-3.4.0-linux" result="success"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="intel-7.1-linux" result="fail"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-3.1-linux" result="success"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-3.2.2-linux" result="success"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-2.95.3-stlport-4.5.3-linux" result="success"/>
                                                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-3.3-linux" result="success"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-3.2.3-linux" result="success"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-3.3.1-linux" result="success"/>
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-2.95.3-linux" result="success"/>
                                                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    <test-result library="python" test-name="data_members" toolset="gcc-3.3.2-linux" result="success"/>

But if you are positive that there is no way it could have passed, I'm
going to mark it up as expected.
