I'm trying to setup gdb to find a problem.  To this end I invoke

bjam --dump_tests --preserve-test-targets --toolset=gcc-3.4.4

So that I get a *.exe left in test test directory.  I'm running cygwin.
The test passes - though it throws a stackdump.  At the end
there is no *.exe file that I can apply the gdb debugger to.

When bjam ends I find

test_diamond.o                    test_diamond_text_archive.test
test_diamond_text_archive.output

in the expected directory - but no *.exe file

Am I missing something really dumb?
