Could this be the problem? -- I use Boost.Python with gcc 4.4 all the time, but I've never tried it
in c++0x mode.

Hi,

I'm running Boost nightly regression tests on a 64-bit Debian linux
platform for quite some time.  I've recently added gcc 4.4 and
Boost.Python is failing miserably; c.f. http://tinyurl.com/yl7yjkv

If I click on a test result URL, such as for "andreas_beyer"
[http://tinyurl.com/yft8k3o], I'm redirected ("See
boost/bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.4/debug") which shows that the
compile succeeded, but nothing more [http://tinyurl.com/yft8k3o].

Digging into the bjam.log file, it turns out these tests are skipped
because the Boost.Python library failed to build.  It would be nice to
improve the error reporting to make this clear.

The compilation error is:

    "g++-4.4"  -ftemplate-depth-128 -std=c++0x -O0 -fno-inline -w -g -fPIC  -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DBOOST_PYTHON_SOURCE  -I".." -I"/usr/include/python2.5" -c -o "/home/steve/Packages/boost/upstream/testing/release/results/boost/bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.4/debug/object/function_doc_signature.o" "../libs/python/src/object/function_doc_signature.cpp"
