Subject: [Boost-testing] Failing tests on gcc of serialization library

I notice a lot of the serialization library tests are failing.

In a number of cases the test is failing to compile.

A cause might be the command line switch "g++-5 -ftemplate-depth-128"
The Jamfiles for the test specify

<toolset>gcc:<cxxflags>"-ftemplate-depth-255"

But this information doesn't seem to be getting used by the test itself.
  I should note that exactly the same compiler passes on my own machine.

Why are the settings used by the tester different from what I expect?
