I recently discussed I'll drop GCC < 4.3 and MSVC < 9.0 in Boost 1.70 in
my libraries (all compilers released ten years ago). More details on:

http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/container-interprocess-intrusive-move-Removing-support-for-old-compilers-td4705146.html

I'll start removing old compiler runners in a few days.

Best.

Ion

PS: In any case, my runners have completed tests but I don't see them
updated in the master matrix:
