Hi all, 

If any function called by a BOOST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE makes a BOOST_XXXX macro call 
my test case is terminated with a SIGSEGV. I assume that this is because some 
part of the boost test framework has not been initialised as the point where by 
call is made. 


Is this a known problem or is this intentional behaviour? 

If this is intentional what should I do instead of calling BOOST_MESSAGE / 
BOOST_FAIL / BOOST_CHECK (for now I have replaced the last 2 with assert but 
this is not ideal...). 


Regards 

Mark
