Thanks, I'm still installing the binaries so I haven't checked yet,
but I'm pretty sure that this triggered the error:

https://github.com/boostorg/timer/commit/98954984a4b55d01380bd8f18c884dc8519133ea

I'm not sure if it's best to revert that change, or fix it in chrono.
I'll start a new thread to get the attention of the library
maintainers.
