Comment (by nigels.com@…):

 Seems be due to BOOST_TEST handling of floating point comparison.

 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_64_0/libs/test/doc/html/boost_test/testing_tools/extended_comparison/floating_point/floating_points_comparison_theory.html

 This passes, for example:

 {{{
 #define BOOST_TEST_MODULE test
 #include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp>

 BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(Foo)
 {
     BOOST_TEST(0.001 < 0.002);
 }
 }}}
