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:
