I ran into this same problem with the upgrade. For the moment my
solution is to comment out the offending definitions for
check_is_close and check_is_small, and change test_tools.hpp:

- replace all (8) occurrences of check_is_close with check_is_close_t()
- replace all (4) occurrences of check_is_small with check_is_small_t()
