3636	make XML output of test report XML-compliant	Ákos Maróy <akos@…>	Gennadiy Rozental	"I have a suggestion for the XML output generated by the boost unit test framework: currently, if tests fail, the message detailing the failure of the test is put in verbatim as a test element into the XML output. This can be problematic, if the output contains XML-like structures, like text that looks like an XML element, or invalid characters.

thus, I'd suggest enclosing such output in a CDATA section, that would ensure that the generated XML file is indeed always well formed XML. see more here: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-cdata-sect - but basically this would mean printing the failures like this:

{{{
<![CDATA[   reason of the failure...   ]]>
}}}
