Subject: [boost] [config] [detail] Macro BOOST_WORKAROUND

Hi Everyone,
I have a couple of concerns regarding macro BOOST_WORKAROUND.

1. Is usage thereof recommended?
2. Why is it documented in Boost.Config but defined in Boost.Detail?
3. Should it not belong to Boost.Config?
4. Why should I use it rather than manual if (BOOST_INTEL < 551) ?

Now, that it is in Boost.Detail, I have to make a dependency on
Boost.Detail, and indirectly on Boost.MPL because other components in
Boost.Detail do.

Regards,
&rzej
