 Hello,

 At this location
 https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/trunk/boost/test/impl/execution_monitor.ipp#L203

 Instead of :
     BOOST_TEST_VSNPRINTF( buf, sizeof(buf), format, args );
 The code should probably look like :
     BOOST_TEST_VSNPRINTF( buf, sizeof(buf)-1, format, args );
     buf[sizeof(buf)-1] = 0;

 Thanks !
 MAT.
