I am working through the "testing" part of the build system at this  
point and I have some questions about how the typical boost developer  
actually runs the "tests".

The tests are compiled using the build/source tree. Is it probable  
that boost developers actually install boost then try and compile  
tests against the installed boost?

I am working through some dependency issues with compiling the actual  
tests. With boost modularized there are lots of missing includes. The  
current way I am going about adding them is probably NOT maintainable.  
I need to do it like the actual build system does it in that you have  
a "module.cmake" file that lists the dependencies. I need to work  
through that system and extend it for the testing cmake files.
