[TRUNCATE]

The two trials with VC++ 7.1 pass the compiler; they fail at the linking
stage:

//========================================================================
    CALL "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\VC7\bin\VCVARS32.BAT" >nul
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC7\bin\link"
/nologo  /DEBUG /subsystem:console
/out:"G:\results\bin\boost\status\rational_test.test\vc-7_1\debug\threading-
multi\rational_test.exe"
/LIBPATH:"G:\results\bin\boost\libs\test\build\libboost_test_exec_monitor.li
b\vc-7_1\debug\threading-multi"
@"G:\results\bin\boost\status\rational_test.test\vc-7_1\debug\threading-mult
i\rational_test.CMD"
     

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file
'libboost_unit_test_framework-vc71-mt-gd-1_34.lib'

//========================================================================

There's something wrong with the Test library setup.  I don't know if it's
at the users' end or with the library itself.
