Also, isn't there a way to bring those deprecated components back even in the C++17 mode? A macro or a compiler switch? The standard library still has to have them for C++14 mode, doesn't it?
We support _HAS_AUTO_PTR_ETC=1 and other escape hatches. However, this choice should be made by the programmer-user, not by libraries.
The idea is that we can release Boost saying that it currently requires MSVC users to define _HAS_AUTO_PTR_ETC=1. In other words, the topic is not a showstopper problem.
