+Boost.Test main() function
+--------------------------
+
+The Boost unit test framework defines a main() function in the static
+library boost_unit_test_framework-mt.a.  Prior to v 1.34, the shared
+library also defined main() but it no longer does.
+
+Please see the manual and the following thread for more details
