The problem comes about due to bug fixes in the random-number code in Boost. I have updated the fingerprint tests in svn so that the tests pass with either version, but it is very important to know that fingerprints from RDKFingerprintMol() generated with boost v1.40 are *not* backwards compatible with those generated using earlier versions.
