I couldn't figure out how to do that.  We did use some commented out
includes in test_tools.hpp.

I think that the tests which A.hpp are the one's that fail. I did tweak
test_simple_class.cpp and it started to pass at least on CLang.

BTW - I notice on the test matrix  if I look up the configuration
for gcc-4.3.4, it bjam finds gcc-4.1.1 instead.  More food for
thought.
