Not sure but IIRC, Boost.Test used to be clean under Darwin Intel and there were far fewer problems in the past.  I believe most of these failures are due to a memory problem with Boost.Test and Intel on Darwin introduced during the last big revision to the Test library a while ago.  Unfortunately I lack the time to debug this for Gennadiy.
