I have built all the libraries, including test, from a recent clone of the whole modular-boost tree
(as per getting started instructions apart from adding my choice of address-model and choosing
asynch-exceptions:
  b2 address-model=32 architecture=x86 asynch-exceptions=on
)

and can test things as expected.

So that's pretty much 'works-for-me' ;-)

And I think it would help if others can confirm this - thus reducing any risk from moving develop to
master for the next release.
