No. It never was tested. It was reverted before any testing was done on the 'develop' branch with those changes.
I'm not sure that lack of testing on current compilers is the main issue. The main issue is "lack of consensus" for dropping support for old compilers, which aren't tested.
I'll say again what I always say when this issue comes up: these compilers are old. They are unlikely to be able to compile new Boost libraries. People who use these compilers can just use older Boost releases (and are probably forced to anyway).
