Hi,

I'm looking at the recent trunk test results 
(http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/log.html) and seeing a 
few failures that I cannot explain or reproduce. In particular:

1. RDC-VC10 fails with errors that were fixed quite some time ago (in revision 
83986 and the test results correspond to 84238). The headers in the errors are 
not included in the test code and other testers do not show these errors. I 
suspect that the tester has some problems regarding SVN checkout or maybe 
cleaning the previous test results.

2. There are a few testers that fail the util_dynamic_type_dispatcher and 
util_static_type_dispatcher tests, namely Qt5 jc-bell.com, teeks99-01a-
win7-32on64 and DrWeb_x86. The test report says this is a runtime failure but 
it has no output or just has an exit status. The same tests run successfully 
for other testers, as well as in my local runs. It may be worth noting that 
the same code is indirectly tested with other tests (e.g. form_attr and 
filt_attr) and these tests succeed. I would appreciate any help in researching 
the problem with these tests. Are there any errors that are not present in the 
report? Does it crash (what's the backtrace)? Any configuration error (missing 
libraries)?

Thanks.
