Comment (by Martina Fedyszynová <m.fedyszynova@…>):

 I've managed to patch the library for VS2013 to bring back support for
 variadic templates. Almost all examples and tests build successfully -
 except for:
  - ''printf.cpp'' example - asserts that any_printable needs the relaxed
 concept (I believe it is a bug in the example)
  - ''test_free.cpp'' - this test fails to build. VS2013 compiler seems to
 require that all  overloaded declarations of injected free functions are
 seen before the first instantiation. Therefore when all the
 BOOST_TYPE_ERASURE_FREE(...) lines are moved above all the test cases, the
 test runs ok.

 The patched ''callable.hpp'' also fixes overloaded callable concepts
 (''multifunction.cpp'' example) which failed to built in VS2013. A bug in
 the compiler causes ambiguities between the overloaded function call
 operators imported via using declarations.

 Sorry for double post of the attachment, the upload seemed stuck and the
 file didn't appear so I tried it again...
