Hi,

I'd like to point your attention toward the current status of our
regression testing. I'll not express opinions, but these are some
facts about 1.34:

- Huang-WinXP-x64 - graph - graphviz_test / msvc-8.0
  LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file
 '[...]\bgl-viz-vc80-gd-1_34.lib'

- For some failures no error message is reported, so that it
  is pretty much impossible for the developer to fix them; e.g.:
  http://tinyurl.com/zmpwk

- metacomm-v2 - algorithm/minmax - minmax / msvc-7.0
  'vsvars32.bat' is not recognized as an internal or
  external command...

- OSL4-V2 - python - andreas_beyer / sun-5.8
  #error Python 2.2 or higher is required for this
  version of Boost.Python.

- RudbekAssociates-V2 - iostreams - bzip2_test / msvc-7.1
  LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file
  '[...]\boost_iostreams-vc71-gd-1_34.lib'

The list is not exhaustive.
