Your belief is correct, but I deliberately didn't mention this option for 
aesthetic reasons. :-)

If we're going to support this configuration, I think that the sensible 
thing to do would be for Boost.Config to define std::nullptr_t, std::move, 
std::forward, and whatever else is missing and necessary. However... I'm not 
sure that Boost.Config would be able to detect it.
