Dear Jens,
I've tried to fix the issue and make a pull request, but I'm sorry to say
that I don't understand the details of boost's test framework well enough.
It seems the main method is auto-generated when linking the dynamic library.
But I do not know how the corresponding non-auto-generated main() should
look like. I'm afraid I would do more harm than help :-/
All the best,
Mario
