New Revision: 79478
URL: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/79478

Log:
Updated Boost Build tests to run the collect_debug_info.py test only when running the tests non-interactively, i.e. when collecting the test results in an xml output file. When running the tests interactively and observing the results on the console there is no need for this always-failing test to spoil the 'all tests passed' result - the user will generally know everything about his system and can still run this test directly if he wishes to see what it would have returned.
