Using boost:1.33.1:

You could customize report formatter. Report formatter is an instance of a 
class derived from boost::unit_test::results_reporter::format.

To modify report formatter use

boost::unit_test::results_reporter::set_format( 
boost::unit_test::results_reporter::format* ).

Boost.Test is responsible for memory management.

Also you could use provided XML report format and apply any kind of XML 
processing facility to produce desired output.
