Documentation is not a solution. ;)
And looking for an updateD Boost version returns 404.
On one hand it's a non-issue, on the other it's an issue that
shouldn't have been there.

One could define BOOST_CONFIG_SUPPRESS_OUTDATED_MESSAGE but then
project files have to be updated.. and after some time you have to
remember to remove the define again.
