It seems to be a restatement of what I wrote in the commit message of the commit I posted, with an added 'basically', and a mistake (5.3 instead of 5.4, which is what I wrote in my commit message).
I don't know if he simply did not read my commit message at all. If he did, he also missed this:

Yes, that's unfortunate. It caused a lot of confusion and mails which are best avoided, distracting attention away from the actual point of the email.
Anyway I don't think dropping those compilers is a problem. It would be interesting to see how much of Boost can be simplified by removing BOOST_NO_TEMPLATE_PARTIAL_SPECIALIZATION everywhere.
Now that there's no confusion anymore (I hope), let's see if anyone else has anything to say too. Thanks, Steve.
