[boost] [test] unit tests succeed on abort?

Subject: [boost] [test] unit tests succeed on abort?

I'm using Boost 1.35 and I notice that when a unit test aborts due to
asserts in the code, it doesn't count as a failure -- the end report
says "*** No errors detected" when in fact a call to abort() was made
due to a failed assert.

I'm thinking this would be a bug, but I'd like to ask first whether
this is intended behavior before thinking it's a bug with Boost.Test.

Have a good day!
