     Type:  Bugs              |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  date_time
  Version:  Boost 1.67.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+------------------------
 In new  [http://www.open-
 std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2018/p0479r5.html C++2a-Specification]
 new attribute-tokens, "likely" and "unlikely", are introduced.
 In GCC 8.1.1 this proposed feature has already been implemented.

 So using GCC8.1.1+ boost (version 1.67) won't compile anymore since
 "likely" is used as identifier in different header files. For example:

 boost/date_time/special_values_parser.hpp:105:17
 boost/date_time/time_parsing.hpp:312:19
