[boost] [tokenizer] Any expert in bjam?

tokenizer is regressing for msvc-stlport as shown in

The same kind of problem happens at the following
cells wich are marked as expected failures:

I've built these tests locally for msvc-stlport locally (from my
IDE) and they work just fine. No fundamental problem with
this platform. So I guess the problem lies in the corresponding
Jamfile entries (located directly in boost/status/Jamfile):

    test-suite tokenizer
        : [ run libs/tokenizer/examples.cpp
<lib>../libs/test/build/boost_test_exec_monitor ]
          [ run libs/tokenizer/simple_example_1.cpp ]
          [ run libs/tokenizer/simple_example_2.cpp ]
          [ run libs/tokenizer/simple_example_3.cpp ]
          [ run libs/tokenizer/simple_example_4.cpp ]
          [ run libs/tokenizer/simple_example_5.cpp ]
        ;

I'm pretty sure this is related to some messing up of stdlibs binaries
(I vaguely recall that STLPort does not work with single-thread static
runtime lib), but my skills of Jamfile are lousy. Could somebody please
have a look at it?

Another thing that left me wondering is that examples 1, 2 and 4
have the same structure as 3 and 5, and yet they do not fail.
