He might have the same problem I had when I started testing.
Not wanting to bother the mailing list with simple question I searched 
google and immediately found this:
    http://www.boost.org/tools/regression/index.htm
The instructions lead you to a completely outdated regression.py which 
downloads an outdated tarball from an old location and thus doesn't get 
updated properly.
The top google results needs to lead or point to current docs or you'll 
scare off potential new testers.

Niko Demmel
