[Boost-testing] Odd bjam/regression.py behaviour

Hallo,
As you may notice the borland tests in my last run are not complete. 
This appears to be due to the fact that something went wrong with trying 
to stop a runaway test (math/common_factor_test loops indefinitely with 
at least one of the Borland compilers). It looks like bjam crashed: the 
log ends with the following lines:

     if %verbose% EQU 1 (
         echo ====== BEGIN OUTPUT ======
         type 
"D:\boost\svn\trunk\results\boost\bin.v2\libs\math\test\common_factor_test.test\borland-5.8.2\debug\common_factor_test.output"
         echo ====== END OUTPUT ======
     )
     exit %status%

====== BEGIN OUTPUT ======
Running 30 test cases...

EXIT STATUS: 1
====== END OUTPUT ======

And when I checked common_factor_test.exe was still running.

Cheers,
Nicola
