We are working looking for the best option to resolve this issue.   No pull request has been submitted yet.  
What do other compilers do if they do not support this type?   Does boost have a macro to avoid its use?

This compiler needs a patch to compile this file. I believe a pull request for the patch was submitted, but I do not know where that is at the moment.

Thanks,

Hi,

This tester is unable to build shared_ptr.hpp:

warning: 1540-5200 The option "-qcpluscmt" is not supported.
warning: 1540-5240 The debug option for assertion has no effect.

This affects all Boost.Test unit tests and I am sure lot more.
Is this compiler setup issue? Can this be addressed?
