Yes, I see this message, too, regardless of the platform. No idea what 
it means.

GCC prior to 4.2 are not supported. Also, I did not strive to support 
Cygwin or MinGW, so it might need some polishing even with GCC 4.4.

No, there is no such option currently.

Strange, I'll look into it.

This looks related to Boost.Test. Not sure I can help with this.
