Subject: [boost] [any] ABI break

Hi,

I'm planning to apply an ABI breaking change to the Boost.Any
https://github.com/boostorg/any/pull/11

That PR makes the binaries that use boost::any smaller. For example
libboost_program_options.so looses 4KB in size.

Boost libraries were not guaranteeing ABI stability, but boost::any is
quite often used across library boundaries. Double checking that there's no
objections.
