[boost] Boost.Test - ICE on GCC4.1.0

Good <time-of-day>!

GCC4.1.0 fails to compile Boost.Test with -fprofile-arcs or 
-ftest-coverage compiler options. I've traced compiler error to "void 
xml_report_formatter::test_unit_report_start( test_unit const& tu, 
std::ostream& ostr )" function.

GCC on Windows just fails with an ICE. GCC4.1 on Linux finishes 
compilation successfully but fails to link the resulting executable with 
erorrs like this:
===============================================================
/home/cyberax/FlexIDE/libs/boost/bin.v2/libs/test/build/gcc/debug/threading-mult
i/libboost_unit_test_framework-gcc-mt-d-1_33.so.1.33.0: undefined 
reference to `global constructors keyed to 
_ZN5boost9unit_test97_GLOBAL__N__home_cyberax_FlexI
DE_libs_boost_libs_test_src_results_collector.cpp_00000000_75CE510517results_col
lectorE'
===============================================================

Has anybody encountered this problem?

PS: Is there any interest for GCOV (GNU Coverage tool) support in 
Boost.Build v2 for test coverage analysis?
