x86_64-linux-gnu-g++ (native): Builds successfully.

arm-linux-androideabi-g++: Fails to link due to missing librt.

mipsel-linux-android-g++: Fails to link due to missing librt.

x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++: Chokes on
libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S.

x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++: Chokes on
libs/context/src/asm/make_x86_64_sysv_elf_gas.S.

clang++ (native): Builds successfully.

pnacl-clang++: Lots of errors, including:
   Unrecognized option: -shared
   ./boost/system/detail/error_code.ipp:120:16: error: assigning to
'int' from incompatible type 'char *'
   ./boost/system/detail/error_code.ipp:261:10: error: duplicate case
value: '104' and '__elast1' both equal '104'
   ./boost/chrono/detail/inlined/posix/process_cpu_clocks.hpp:31:33:
error: use of undeclared identifier '_SC_CLK_TCK'
   ./boost/thread/pthread/thread_data.hpp:62:23: error: no matching
function for call to 'pthread_attr_getstacksize'

The failures for Android look serious but fixable. The failures for
mingw seem to only affect Boost.Context which is inherently
non-portable, so I don't consider them serious. The failures for pnacl
look serious, but their sheer number probably makes fixing them for this
release impractical.
