These are the results for compiling Boost 1.59.0-RC3 on
   Debian 7 (64 bit):

Success for the following compilers and settings:
* GCC-4.8 with C++11 and preprocessed MPL-Headers (up to 100 elements)
* GCC-4.9 with C++11 and preprocessed MPL-Headers (up to 100 elements)
* GCC-5.1 with C++14 and preprocessed MPL-Headers (up to 100 elements)
* Clang-3.5 with C++14 and preprocessed MPL-Headers (up to 100 elements)

Note: The MPL-Headers were preprocessed using the scripts in 
libs/mpl/preprocessed. (See: 
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/11224 and 
https://github.com/boostorg/mpl/pull/20 and 
https://github.com/boostorg/mpl/pull/21)

I used the following Boost.Build command:

<VERBATIM>

b2  -j4 -q
    --build-dir=/tmp/TEST-Boost  \
    --build-type=complete  \
    --layout=versioned   \
    address-model=64  \
    install  \
    --prefix="/opt/TEST-Boost"  \
    toolset=${TOOLSET}  \
    cflags="-fPIC"  \
    cxxflags="-fPIC -std=${CXX_STD} ${STDLIB}"  \
    dll-path="/opt/TEST-Boost/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"

</VERBATIM>

with ${TOOLSET} being one of: gcc-4.8 gcc-4.9 gcc-5 clang-3.5
with ${CXX_STD} being one of: c++11 c++14
with ${CXX_STDLIB} being empty for GCC and for Clang: -stdlib=libc++

Boost.Build prints the following configuration-result:
