I won't get a chance to test VS2013 RTM till late next week after 
when I get back from Seattle, but apart from Boost.Config having to 
turn off variadic templates on VS2013 due to breakage in 
Boost.Signals2 and a few other minor places, it was all looking very 
good indeed in the RC.

If that preprocessor bug is still extant in the RTM, I posted a 
workaround a few days ago. Otherwise to my knowledge it's good to go, 
and I've been using VS2013 with Boost since its first beta. 
Boost.AFIO was mostly written and debugged using VS2012 Nov CTP and 
VS2013 in fact because Windows has a very decent async file i/o 
framework. A good Visual Studio release, no doubt.
