Re: [release] Boost 1.85.0 Release Candidate 3 is available

I got errors building msvc 14.3 with VS 2022 17.10 (preview).

The error is (in tools/build/src/tools/msvc.jam, line 1140) due to not 
recognizing the runtime library version of msvc which starts with 14.40 
(no longer 14.3x, but it's still toolset v143).
I made a PR to Boost.Build develop branch which fixes it.

https://github.com/boostorg/build/pull/771

Btw: this is also a problem for older Boost releases, which won't build 
with VS 2022 17.10 or newer.
