The develop branch fails to run (I think) since it compiles and links, but the master branch will pass. When I look at the fail links I’m getting no useful information about the failure.

I've just updated my local develop branch and tried to build my tests
and got this:

It seems like a name clash somewhere in Boost.Test.
