[Boost-testing] mangled regex test results

Some of the recent test runs (Linux and the  RudbekAssociates Win32 ones)
appear to be mangled up because the regex lib didn't get rebuilt prior to
running the tests.  Looks like bjam's dependency testing is messed up :-(

On a related note, the  iw- 7_1- vc6- stlp- 4_5_3 tests are failing because
the compiler appears to be incorrectly parsing the string literal:

"\\x{1b}"

After the compiler has done with it, this should evaluate to '\x{1b}', but
this appears not to be the case, anyone any ideas?

Finally the one of the Metacomm msvc tests is failing 
(http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost-regression/developer/output/metacomm-bin-boost-libs-regex-test-regex_regress_dll-test-msvc-debug-threading-multi.html) 
but passes when I run it locally.  Any ideas here?  Some kind of unexpected 
exception is getting thrown, but it's not clear what it is.

Thanks!

John.
