[boost] Boost Test - yet more mostly spurious warnings.

To get quiet compilations (MSVC 8.0 release 140050727, level 4, no MS
extensions),

I have had to disable persistent warnings from
boost\test\detail\test_tools.hpp

by adding to supress_warning.hpp

# pragma warning(disable: 4127) // conditional expression is constant.
Entirely correct and expected.

# pragma warning(disable: 4180) // qualifier applied to function type has no
meaning; ignored

at:
    const_string message() const  { return !m_message ? const_string() :
const_string( m_message->str() ); }

                            ^^ const not useful? but not wrong.

# pragma warning(disable: 4224) // nonstandard extension used : formal
parameter 'tool_level' was previously defined as a type

i:\boost_1_33_0\boost/test/test_tools.hpp(385) : warning C4224: nonstandard

Is it complaining about re-using the name tool_level?

void check_impl( predicate_result const& pr, wrap_stringstream& check_descr,
                 const_string file_name, std::size_t line_num,
                 tool_level tool_level, check_type ct,   <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                 std::size_t num_args, ... );

Of these, only the latter might be worth worrying about?

Still works fine, but if you are tidying up sometime...
