I was able to build the libraries successfully with the following
configurations:

Mac OS X 10.14.6, apple-clang 10.01: c++03/11/14/17/2a
Mac OS X 10.14.6, clang-trunk:            c++03/11/14/17/2a
Ubuntu 18.14, gcc 8.3.2:                       c++03/11/14/1z
Ubuntu 18.14, clang-trunk:                    c++03/11/14/17/2a

I should have some more test results later tonight, but the following
libraries failed
many tests on "Mac OS X 10.14.6, apple-clang 10.01: c++03":
    Boost.VMD
    Boost.numeric/ublas (lots of constexpr, and other non-c++03 stuff)
    Boost.Process - lots of non-c++03 stuff
