Milestone:  Boost 1.35.1                 |   Component:  test   
  Version:  Boost 1.35.0                 |    Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:  child process non-zero code  |  
-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 The issue is very similar to Ticket #1723. That solution is not good since
 childs are allowed to exit only with 0 code now. It's better having more
 freedom. Non-zero code doesn't mean the test case failed. For example,
 grep returns 1 when it can't find a match. I suggest removing return code
 check at all.

 This used to work OK in Boost 1.34.1.
