Unfortunately this is causing a *huge* number of failures in the current
test matrix - if you include a Boost.Test header now you get auto-linking
which causes problems for all those tests that include the
<boost/test/included/*.ipp> sources.

Also the "new" header test_exec_monitor.hpp seems to get included as soon as
you include *any* Boost.Test header. This isn't necessarily a bad thing,
but does mean a breaking change. Even if the boost/test/included/*.ipp
sources were to turn off auto-linking (and they should) that won't work if
some other Boost.Test header has been included first.

John.
