This thread shows how and why it's important to get boost to build with
Clang/LLVM (clang-cl), as VS is (still) a moving target and clang probably
already has it right. By reporting those bugs MS (which it possibly is),
you'll also be helping VS (and your-selves) forward. Trying to fix a build
of Boost with a vaporware like VS 15.6.6 seems a waste of time and is
highly irrelevant.
