Actually, now that you mentioned it, it looks like a lot of Boost.Test
regressions fail on the Sun platform...
http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/test.html

Is this Sun platform supported on not by Boost? (How can my library
tests pass IF the tester library doesn't work on a platform?!)

Can the Sun platform maintainer (Noel Belcourt?) please send me more
detail on the failure messages? Unfortunately, at this point I can't
confirm if the failure is in the Sun platform/toolset, Boost.Test, or
Boost.ScopeExit?

Thanks a lot :)
