How did you build Boot.Test library? what variant r u using? Static or shared?

/home/maroy/src/tyrell/src/darksweep/usr/lib/
libboost_test_exec_monitor-gcc43-mt-s.a(framework.o):

You should not use test_exec_monitor. You should link with
boost_unit_test_framework.

I'd suggest you to try to use single header variant of Boost.Test 
and thus avoid any linking issues.

I can try to reproduce this. But I'll need to find vmware image for that. 
Do you know where i can find one?
