With CC compiler you can specify with iostream lib to use using -library= 
option

Before we go into further digging, here is another peice of info I just 
uncovered:

It only failes for targets that link with Boost.Test statically. All the 
tests that links with dll works fine. That's why regression tests works - 
they all use dlls.

Here is an example of passed test:
