Indeed!

Yes. And I think I know where.. I just did:

wget 
http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/boost/snapshot/boost-CVS-HEAD.tar.bz2
tar yxvf boost-CVS-HEAD.tar.bz2

And got a directory of:

boost-CVS-HEAD-05-02-21-2037/...

So that's saying that the last time the Meta-Comm tarball got updated 
was on February 21st, three weeks ago!!!

So the outdated toolset is coming from the sources.

Given that could you try getting the sources from the anon CVS instead? 
Just add "--user=anonymous" to the regression.py invocation. Even if the 
anon CVS is a few hours behind, it's better than a few weeks behind ;-)

PS. Another example of something that would be easier to diagnose/fix 
with BuildBot :-)
