I didn't lie, I fixed the MSVC issues. Also I asked on how to compile
with gcc4.4~c0x, but I got no answer and I do not know where to look.

I believe this code is correct:
#ifndef BOOST_NO_CXX11_HDR_INITIALIZER_LIST
static std::map<char,char const*> const char_type{{
{'<' , "lt"},
{'>' , "gt"},
{'&' , "amp"},
{'\'', "apos"},
{'"' , "quot"}
}};
#else /.../
Maybe I am missing something.

Same error.
What am I supposed to do with this log?
http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/PNNL-RHEL6_64-boost-bin-v2-libs-test-test-algorithm-test-test-gcc-4-4~c0x-debug.html
?
Why aren't the runners be able to capture the outputs?

Maybe because of "-Werror=unused-parameter" ? or maybe this one is

I believe this is the wrong thing to do for those runners: raising those
trivial warnings as errors makes them quite useless and this is a waste
of time and resource for everybody.
Is boost.test compiling for the end users of those platform? I do not
know. Those runners are telling just nothing.

What is the point you are trying to make?
On my side, I believe the regression workflow and tools **can and
should** be improved (runners cycling more frequently, outputs properly
captured, history, no downtime due to some big zip file, better
ergonomy, more responsive, etc etc).
