This is looking very good.

I have a minor comment regarding the documentation. In the reference
section you list all the pre-defined macros that are used to detect a
given Boost.Predef macro. That is not really the kind of information I
would expect as a user. Instead I would like to know that I should use
BOOST_ARCH_ALPHA to detect the Alpha CPU, and that version number 6.0.0
refers EV6 (aka 21264 [1].)

If I want to determine what pre-defined macros are used to create the
various Boost.Predef macros, the source is probably a more better place
to look.
