 Today I spend half a day to reveal that Boost.Test is not thread safe :)

 Please point it explicitly in documentation.

 (When MT, BOOST_ERROR, for example, cause unknown exception but only after
 thread exit, and only 1 time for 10 runs. This makes bugs extremely
 difficult to locate, and since most Boost libraries are thread-safe,
 Boost.Test is the last thing to check).
