[boost] [TR1] std_run_random failure with VC9 SP1

The std_run_random test is failing on VC9 SP1 (http://tinyurl.com/64xsr5),
seemingly because the mersenne_twister implementation doesn't like being seeded
with 0:

///////////////

void seed(unsigned long _X0 = default_seed)
                {	// set initial values from specified value
                _RNG_ASSERT(0 < _X0,
                        "invalid argument for mersenne_twister::seed");

///////////////

Is that a bug in SP1, or an incorrect test?

Thanks,
Richard Webb
