Subject: [boost] [1.59] Still unmerged changes in the super-project

There are a number of unmerged changes in develop of the super-project
that look like they should really be in release, in particular:

* Jamroot, contains amongst other things a very old fix for Oracle C++
support, without which building with Oracle is more or less broken. In
fact unmerged commits on this file go back to....wait for it... 2011 !
* bootstrap.bat has fixes for some rather embarrassing typos.
* bootstrap.sh has lots of fixes, also going back to 2011.

Those were the "highlights" that stood out to me, the full list with
unmerged changes is:
