Re: [boost] [Boost-bugs] [ boost-Bugs-1461533 ] Non-basic-source-character-set characters conflict with MSVC

From: Foster Brereton (fosterb.boost_at_[hidden])

I have attached a list to this email (There are 354 in the list as of
this writing). I couldn't figure out how to attach the file to the bug
report after-the-fact. Note that these are the most likely candidate
source files to cause an error when building the Boost sources -- some
test cases and example sources were omitted.

Blessings,
Foster
