Thanks for testing! I've done builds on Windows and OSX, and everything appear to build, although I'd say the number
of warnings is rather disappointing - seem that some libraries trigger warnings in MPL.

Hana is failing across the board - it only passes with 4 toolsets in the matrix (clang-linuxg 3.6 and 3.7, gcc 6.0.1 and 
7.0) - it would be nice it expected failures markup were up-to-date.
