There is a pull-request for Config to provide support for switching between boost:: and std:: library equivalents: https://github.com/boostorg/config/pull/63
My questions are:
* Is this the right approach? And, * Is Boost.Config the right place for it?
This PR makes Boost.Config depend on all the related Boost libraries creating a whole cycle and modularity will be broken.
The PR just adds macros. It does not add dependencies to Boost.config.
It would suggest to have some kind of Boost.Std library with different versions c++11/c++14 and why not TSs.
However the concerned libraries couldn't use this library without adding cycles :(
Having a sub-library for each file Boost.Std/Regex would make it possible for a Boost library to use these sub-libraries without adding cycles.
An alternative is to add these files in the concerned libraries, e.g. boost/regex/std/regex.hpp
