What I think needs to be done is here:

https://github.com/boostorg/regression/blob/ci/test-reports/ci_build_results_all.sh#L195

add the line

(cd ${boost} && git checkout origin/${1} --  
status/explicit-failures-markup.xml)

but for that to work, here

https://github.com/boostorg/regression/blob/ci/test-reports/ci_build_results_all.sh#L56

--depth 1 must be removed as the above doesn't work on a shallow clone.

I don't feel particularly confident doing this change though; I've never 
touched the testing infrastructure and shell scripts aren't my primary area 
of expertise.

As an alternative, you could just merge your markup to master. :-)
