As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.
I was able to build the libraries successfully with the following configurations:
Mac OS X 10.14.6, apple-clang 10.01: c++03/11/14/17/2a Mac OS X 10.14.6, clang-trunk: c++03/11/14/17/2a Ubuntu 18.14, gcc 8.3.2: c++03/11/14/1z Ubuntu 18.14, clang-trunk: c++03/11/14/17/2a
I should have some more test results later tonight, but the following libraries failed many tests on "Mac OS X 10.14.6, apple-clang 10.01: c++03": Boost.VMD Boost.numeric/ublas (lots of constexpr, and other non-c++03 stuff) Boost.Process - lots of non-c++03 stuff
VMD needs variadic macro support, which for a very few compiler implementations means C++11 or higher, or else it fails a test when compiled at the C++03 level.
