Personally I run preview versions of MSVC and it'd be nice if it 'just
worked' with Boost.
There's no need to wait until a stable release to work on
compatibility either. On the contrary, both Boost and MSVC might
benefit from earlier work on 'integration'.

That said, I think MSVC is in better shape too then it was during the
VC6 era so it might be less of an issue.
