[Boost-users] Boost.Test internal framework error: unknown reason

Aloha,

I have a strange problem when running the Boost Unit Test Framework  
on MacOS X (Intel). I'm using Boost 1.33.1 built from source with gcc  
4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367). Compiling and linking of my  
tests works fine with:

/usr/bin/g++-4.0 -arch i386 -Wl,-all_load  -L$BOOST_LOCATION - 
lboost_unit_test_framework ...

but whenever I try to run my test application I get a not very  
meaningful error message (the same code works fine on Linux and  
Windows):

Boost.Test internal framework error: unknown reason

saga_test_suite_v2 has exited with status 200.

The error seems to occur somewhere within the framework  
initialization - the entry point (test_suite * init_unit_test_suite  
(int argc, char* argv[])) is never reached. Any ideas how to track  
down the error? Are there any command line arguments to make the  
framework's output more verbose?

Thanks,

Ole
