I've got a copy myself: I've manually built one of the failing tests
(deletion_test.cpp) and everything's playing smoothly here... One quirk I've
noticed, don't know if it can make a difference, is that the associated
Jamfile.v2 includes a dependency on boost_test_exec_monitor that is not
really needed.

Do you want me to try something in order to ellucidate what's going on?
