I have no plans at the moment for adding move emulation. The ordinary copy 
constructor works well enough in the majority of cases.

As for the failures, I'm hoping that the regression test system will develop 
a way to handle a 'skipped' return status from a test so that I can use

#ifndef BOOST_HAS_RVALUE_REFS

    return EXIT_SKIPPED;

#endif

instead of marking every existing and future toolset as an expected failure.
