Boost.Python release testing failures

[smr99]

Hi,

I'm running Boost nightly regression tests on a 64-bit Debian linux
platform for quite some time.  I've recently added gcc 4.4 and
Boost.Python is failing miserably; c.f. http://tinyurl.com/yl7yjkv

If I click on a test result URL, such as for "andreas_beyer"
[http://tinyurl.com/yft8k3o], I'm redirected ("See
boost/bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.4/debug") which shows that the
compile succeeded, but nothing more [http://tinyurl.com/yft8k3o].

Digging into the bjam.log file, it turns out these tests are skipped
because the Boost.Python library failed to build.  It would be nice to
improve the error reporting to make this clear.

The compilation error is:

I hope this helps the Boost.Python maintainers to fix it.  Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks,

Steve,

thanks for the report. Could you submit the problem to the issue tracker
? I'm a little surprised by the error, as I do test boost.python locally
(GCC 4.4, x86_64 GNU/Linux) occasionally, and I haven't seen any issues
on trunk after committing the last big chunk of work (the Python 3 port
changes).

Thanks,
         Stefan

Could this be the problem? -- I use Boost.Python with gcc 4.4 all the time, but I've never tried it
in c++0x mode.

Yeah, that is likely the problem.  I had forgotten that I was specifically
testing C++0x mode.

Richard Webb has posted some promising-looking patches to the ticket I
opened: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/3584
