Comment (by johnmaddock):

 There's a message thread on the lists to the effect that variadic
 templates are not fully supported yet:
 http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2013/09/206389.php so I'm reluctant
 to re-enable them in Boost.Config.  Sounds like this is a good case where
 a BOOST_WORKAROUND would be more appropriate in the thread lib?

 BTW am I alone in finding it ironic that the way to work around a compiler
 bug is to enable an only-partially-working new feature?  Oh well!

 The change I'm suggesting for synchronized_value.hpp is to change:

 {{{
 #if ! defined BOOST_NO_CXX11_VARIADIC_TEMPLATES
 }}}

 to

 {{{
 #if ! defined(BOOST_NO_CXX11_VARIADIC_TEMPLATES) ||
 BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_MSVC, == 1800)
 }}}
