Ok, then few more questions

1. What are the instructions for using Boost.Test DLL on Windows? Some
experiments results in:

        ### mwld Linker Error:
        #   Undefined symbol: '_main'
        #   referenced from '_mainCRTStartup' in maincrt.c:97 
        (MSL_All-DLL_x86_D.lib)
..failed cw.link ..\..\.. Â  Â  Â  Â 
\bin.v2\libs\test\test\class_properties_test.test\cw-9.4\debug\class_properties_test.exe...

2. Do you plan to update FAQ, that still says it's not implemented (at least
on HEAD).

3. Are there any plans to modify the testsuite so that linking to DLL is
tested?

Thanks,
