What a coincidence that - after a "longish" period of this bug
manifesting, somehow everybody runs into the same bug now:

 - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63718805/parameter-passing-bug-in-boost-log/63727877#63727877
 - https://github.com/boostorg/parameter/issues/97 (last comment)

I wonder whether it was a combination of factors exposing this rather
than it lurking in plain site for a long while. Perhaps a note should
be added to known issues for Boost Log library users.
