Please download the beta, give it a try, and report any problems you encounter.

I want to report a problem.

Boost.Test is broken when cross-compiling for Windows on Linux using a case-sensitive file system because it #includes instead of on line 32 of boost/test/utils/timer.hpp.

I did a quick grep through the boost sources, and found: * About 250 #includes of "windows.h" (all lower case) * Zero #includes of "Windows.h" (upper-case 'W') (and a reference to changing one instance in Boost.Test from "Windows.h" to "windows.h" for 1.67.0)

We may or may not be correct, but we're quite consistent.

FYI: On my windows 10 machine, the file(s) inside the windows sdks are called "Windows.h". All "windows.h" files on my machine come from mingw or boost itself (which sounds like a bad idea TBH).
