Things are not looking that good on the CMT repositories as I have added CI
to all of them and found a number of problems.

See:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aFdTMdJmmD9L5IyvJx-nj3BrMVztmlNo8QwyEzLD2io/edit#gid=0

The repos "function", "pool", "property_map", and "ptr_container" build
successfully and I have merged the CI work into them.  They all need
Appveyor enabled, I'll work with Michael to get that done.

As for the rest, each of the PRs either in my fork (WIP) or against the
repo are showing rot.  For example boost::rational fails unit tests.
boost::assign shows an incompatibilty with MSVC 2012.  Some repositories
won't even build at all, like boost::statechart, at least not in the CI
environment.  Sometimes jamfiles get too fancy and make debug and release
targets for things when they should not be doing that, I think this might
be the case here.

So there's a lot of CMT work to do in order to fix these found issues up.
