Stackoverflow re-lisensing to MIT is told to be in place starting Feb 1, 2016 and only for new contributions. But the StackOverflow contribution that has been borrowed in Boost is Nov 23, 2011 and contributions prior to Feb1, 2016 are under the "Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 3.0" license which is not permissive.

Side note: Everything on StackOverflow remains CC-BY-SA only. That MIT relicensing was proposed, but never went through: https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/285711/source-code-on-stack-overflo...
