Subject: [boost] [config] Need some clang testing help...

Folks there are persistent bug reports relating to clang with libstdc++
not correctly detecting the std lib feature set, see
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/7473 for a lengthy discussion on
the issue, and why it's been unsolvable.

Anyhow, I've just committed a tentative patch in
https://github.com/boostorg/config/commit/b36566fe04a89103b7ef5569c03e3a26eb77af36
and I'd be grateful if as many folks as possible can test this with
their clang/linux/libstdc++/C++11 setups as they can. It works well for
me locally, but that's only one possible clang configuration.

BTW the easiest way to patch your Boost version is probably to download
a replacement libstdcpp2.hpp from here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/boostorg/config/b36566fe04a89103b7ef5569c03e3a26eb77af36/include/boost/config/stdlib/libstdcpp3.hpp

Many thanks in advance, John.
