Yes, that was fixed on Nov 28, 2012 (DevDiv#510827 internally).

Alias templates and defaulted/deleted functions have been checked into the compiler. I believe the listed C99 features have all been checked in, but I'm not absolutely sure (and presumably they don't matter to Boost). I don't know the current state of NSDMIs as I don't have to take a dependency on them.

I just checked in the STL changes for alias templates; deleted functions are up next.
