[boost] Possible bug in Unit Testing routines

From: Thomas Thorp (tthorp_at_[hidden])

In trying to track down a memory leak with my code (using Deleaker, VS2005,
Windows XP, boost 1.34.1 from boost consulting), I'm getting the folowing
message as being the source of a memory leak.  This partiular list, shows
the line where the memory was allocated.  My question is, is this a valid
error, or one I should just ignore?

Thanks in advance

Tom
