It doesn't seem to be an issue with bjam, but with the compiler itself (bjam
actually invokes the default compiler, which is gcc-4.5 on my system). I
attach the compile log (for libs/numeric/ublas/test in boost-1.43.0) for
those who are able to interpret this stuff...

Ok, I'll just try to omit those files which have compiler errors, and add
some tests to the remaining ones. Probably for each test of bounded_vector
there should be a similar one for fixed_vector.
