Boost.Dispatch underwent a c++11 rewrite for compile-time issue yes, the 
main point being to use proper modern type deduction facility and
be less constraining on how to provide dispatching point. Mathias 
Gaunard can probably be more talkative on the details.

Boost.SIMD is still being updated but it's mostly cosmetic/usability 
changes for now. Nothing in Boost.SIMD scream c++11-only by design, it's 
just adapting to new pratice.
