I was able to get the regression tests to run using this workaround in
user-config.jam.
Here's what the config_info is:
https://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/teeks99-test02-boost-bin-v2-libs-config-test-config_info-test-msvc-14-1-debug-address-model-64-link-static-runtime-link-static.html
I'm disappointed that we can't have general support for future versions of
msvc. We don't seem to have this problem with pre-release versions of
GCC/Clang.
