I have similar issues as well, but with MSVC with toolset v141 and /std:c++latest. It chokes on std::unary_function having been removed, but I really need post C++14 features.

It is very annoying that Boost configures almost entirely manually. MSVC specific config header is purely based on compiler versions instead of probing for particular featues. Apologies for axing the developers again because of this, but if Boost would have mainlined any of the projects that aimed on using CMake as a configure and build system, we’d have none of these issues. One could properly detect features of compilers unknown to Boost at the time it was written.

Unfortunately these aren't solutions for my problem, but for the counterpart
of it. 

I don't need auto_ptr, but the boost implementation of shared_ptr does.

If the standard library (libc++ in this case) does not provide
std::auto_ptr, I can't use boost::shared_ptr. (Again I won't use
boost::shared_ptr, but the other boost libraries I use do.) The best
solution would be, when boost::dll, boost::filesystem and boost::spirit::x3
would use std::shared_ptr instead of boost::shared_ptr if available. (The
same with boost::filesystem and std::filesystem by the way.)

To clarify my question: Is there a way to disable std::auto_ptr overloads
inside the boost library? Especially inside the Boost Smart Ptr library.
