That's the crux of things isn't it?  If Boost.Test drops support for older 
compilers then none of us can test our libraries with those compilers unless 
we reinvent Boost.Test like functionality.

Again I'd like add that I'd like this support retained, even if it's just 
minimal legacy support (forwarding to a bunch of VC6 specific headers that 
don't get any new functionality or bug fixes).
