Are these the trunk or release tests?

The assert that is failing in debug mode:

     Assertion failed: (m_action_name == action_name),
     function stop_message, file ../src/process_jam_log.cpp, line 499.

might be caused by a corrupt log file.

If that's the problem, clearing out all residue and rerunning all tests 
from scratch might help.
