4579,MSVC regression tests need _set_abort_behavior() call,Jim Bell <jim@…>,René Rivera,"A number of boost regression tests fail and put up a dialog:
{{{
Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library
Debug Error!
Program …
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application’s support team for more information.
(Press Retry to debug the application.)
[Buttons:] Abort, Retry, Ignore. 
}}}

The '--timeout' parameter to run.py eventually kills it, but even at 5 (minutes), dozens of these assertions extend the regression test by hours, and I think that the current trunk test is triggering at least a dozen.

You can inhibit this box via the MSVC run-time function [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e631wekh.aspx _set_abort_behavior()]: 
{{{
_set_abort_behavior( 0, _WRITE_ABORT_MSG|_CALL_REPORTFAULT);
}}}


Can the regression-testing framework insert this call for each program it builds under Win32/MSVC?
