OK, nothing shows on the summary page, and I renamed the uploaded files to 
ftp://rudbek.com/pub/boost to the uninspired names of  save.........
hopefully you guys will find out why we're not finding the problems.

unfortunately there aren't any errors in the log file...I'm trying to find 
out what _I_ do differently in using boost::array than the tests (and you 
can be sure I'll add a test when I do).

there are many files which appear to use the range headers which aren't 
compiling that far because of some missing   ziplib.h or bziplib.h 
files.... perhaps it was in that area that the problems existed the other day.
