Judging by

https://github.com/boostorg/date_time/blob/develop/include/boost/date_time/compiler_config.hpp#L15

I'd say that USE_DATE_TIME_PRE_1_33_FACET_IO is very much obsolete by now.

Of course, to pass the cost/benefit analysis, this removal would need to 
bring some benefits, however minimal.
