If you are referring to these two

        <mark-unusable>
            <toolset name="borland"/>
            <toolset name="borland-5_6_4"/>
            <note author="M.Stevens" refid="17"/>
        </mark-unusable>
        <mark-unusable>
            <toolset name="cw-8.3"/>
            <toolset name="msvc"/>
            <toolset name="msvc-stlport"/>
            <toolset name="vc7"/>
                        <toolset name="iw-7_1-vc6"/>
            <note author="M.Stevens" refid="30"/>
        </mark-unusable>

they are not test-case but _libary_ markup blocks; specifically, they
mark the whole library as unusable on the enumerated toolsets. In
general, the _order_ of things in the XML is irrelevant; it's only the
structure and content that matter.

Like this:

        <test name="test3">
            <mark-failure>
                <toolset name="intel-win32-8_1"/>
                <note author="S. Slapeta" refid="3"/>
            </mark-failure>
            <mark-failure>
                <toolset name="gcc-2.95.3-linux"/>
                <toolset name="gcc-2.95.3-stlport-4.5.3-linux"/>
                <note author="M.Stevens" refid="30"/>
            </mark-failure>
        </test>

Alternatively, if you find that you need to apply identical markup to
several tests, you can employ <mark-expected-failures> block(s) --
