I have built the libraries on ARM on Mac OS Ventura 13.4.1 (22G313)
using 'Apple clang version 15.0.0 (clang-1500.3.9.4)’

All the libraries built successfully on C++11/14/17/20/2b
The following libraries failed to build on C++03:
        Boost.Contract
        Boost.Coroutine
        Boost.Graph
        Boost.ProgramOptions
        Boost.Random
        Boost.Serialization
        Boost.Thread
