We discussed whether adding an alternative naming for copy_exception()
could be called a major change. You can see the commit at
https://github.com/boostorg/exception/commit/330008445c38aa793a07909d623addfc885464e6.

We concluded that it was so minor as to be unimportant, and for Outcome
the relevant commit
https://github.com/ned14/outcome/commit/eff410f5943e5acc16ab005e128096b27021902f
I'm classing as a minor bug fix.

So, in my opinion, we're all good.
