Re: [boost] [1.33.0] Final release schedule

These particular ones are due to the fact that I've never been able to force 
the order of tests with bjam.  Those tests attempt to load archives which 
haven't been created yet.  If one doesn'st clean out the $TMPDIR, these 
errors don't occur the next time.  Using the markup to indicate - fails 
sometimes resulted in a misleading marking of the passing tests (If I 
remember correctly) so I just had to leave it.  That is, the "fail" are 
really artifacts of the bjam implementation.
