I had cloned that line from https://github.com/boostorg/boost/blob/master/boostcpp.jam, but I see that has changed since then. I have just pushed https://github.com/boostorg/python/commit/d515eb82c8a1e007651b1e7d75a3141fdc..., so please let me know if you want to incorporate that commit into master for the release.

Those warnings are fairly new, and were added to warn about future incompatibilities. I'd prefer to leave fixing them until after the beta release. Although, IMO the best thing would be to disable the warnings in this release, as there hasn't been enough time to deal with them.

OK, fine. I'll cherry-pick the commit once master is open again for fixes. Stefan -- ...ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin...

That's an error in a python header, so it doesn't seem like something we can do anything about. They use Visual C++ 14.0 for building python 3.6.

I downloaded and built the .7z file. Libraries got built using G++ 6.4.0 on Cygwin, nothing to report (attached entire ./b2 output just for reference). I also built and ran all Boost.Contract tests and examples, no issue.

Boost.Contract part looks good.

Boost.Contract docs look good. Thank you. --Lorenzo
