Hi Volodya !

Which is currently failing at my WinXP machine when I run the test by 
hand.

I think I've traced this down to
tools/regression/xsl_reports/xsl/v2/common.xsl
( or the same filename one directory up, I don't know which xsl script 
are used at the moment...)

At line 148 there is a XSLT function "meta:is_test_log_a_test_case" 
which is obviously used to test whether a test_log is a valid test 
case.
Unfortunately, the current version only checks for 
-compile
-compile_fail
-run
-run_pyd

The three remaining test categories are missing:
- link (used by asio test in HEAD, after a short grep...)
- link_fail (unused)
- run_fail (used by Boost.Test tests.)

So at least four tests are falling off the radar right now...

The attached patch should solve the problem.
Warning: untested, as I've just copy & edited the text and have to 
figure out how to create the test summary page myself.

It would be nice if someone from metacomm could comment on this...

Yours,

Jürgen
