It's a SNAFU in the testing setup (our fault not yours) the problem is that 
BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME doesn't fit into the testing framework very well:

Most macros are either defined or not, and this is what the testing 
framework assumes, but this one is either defined to nothing or defined to 
"typename", so it confuses the framework.  I guess I should really remove 
this from the framework and devise a special test case just for this macro 
(if that's possible).

HTH, John.
