At minimum the Fiber build file should avoid building on platforms it
doesn't support. It does that for the tests with the following:

    [ requires cxx11_auto_declarations
               cxx11_constexpr
               cxx11_defaulted_functions
               cxx11_final
               cxx11_hdr_tuple
               cxx11_lambdas
               cxx11_noexcept
               cxx11_nullptr
               cxx11_rvalue_references
               cxx11_template_aliases
               cxx11_variadic_templates  ]

But doesn't do the same for the libs/fiber/build/jamfile.v2. Oliver you
should add that requires to the "boost_fiber" lib target.
