Log message:
py-boost: disable numpy

For some reason, the numpy so file is not created in the package as-is,
breaking the package in the packaging step.

Remove py-numpy dependency and matching entries in PLIST to fix package.

Please fix this and numpy support back if you want, but this solves
the immediate breakage.

Bump PKGREVISION.

Updated Libraries

Asio:
Added ip::scope_id_type type alias.
Added ip::port_type type alias.
Added std::hash specialisations for IP addresses.
Added std::hash specialisations for ip::basic_endpoint<>.
Refactored SFINAE usage to improve compile times.
Added friendship support to customisation points, and made most customisations \ 
private.
Changed any_io_executor to a "strong typedef"-style class.
Fixed experimental::as_single to work with handler hook deprecation.
Ensured pthread condition variable attributes are cleaned up on all platforms.
Clarified thread safety notes on sockets and descriptors.
Ensured errno is not overwritten if socket() fails on macOS/FreeBSD.
Fixed work tracking for io_context and thread_pool executors when move-assigned.
Ensured internal call_stack objects are accessed only from implementation files.
Fixed I/O object move-assignment to ensure the executor is left in a valid state.
Fixed detection of compiler support for defaulted template argument on functions \ 
with MSVC.
Prevented the blocking.always property from being used with strand<>, as \ 
it did not produce the correct semantics.
Removed deprecated file asio/impl/src.cpp.
Atomic:
Fixed compilation with MSVC for ARM.

Beast:
This update brings minor bug fixes and revamped CI reporting.
We'd love to know how you or your company use Beast, consider adding an entry to \ 
the Companies and Individuals Using Beast list.
See the full Release Notes for a complete list of changes.

Bind:
Add support for using the standard C++11 placeholders with boost::bind.
Update boost::apply to use variadic templates and perfect forwarding.
Container:
Added [[no-discard]] attribute in all containers to catch bugs related to unused \ 
return values.
Replaced default standard exception classes with Boost.Container own classes, \ 
reducing considerably the included files overhead. Example: in MSVC 19 \ 
boost/container/vector.hpp preprocessed file size reduces from 1,5MB to 930KB. \ 
If you still want to use standard exception classes, you can define \ 
BOOST_CONTAINER_USE_STD_EXCEPTIONS before using any Boost.Container class.
Fixed bugs/issues:
GitHub 102: "flat_map::insert ambiguous with initializer list & pairs \ 
that need to convert".
GitHub 139: "flat_map merge and iterators".
GitHub 141: "small_vector does not propagate no throw properties of move \ 
operation of contained type".
GitHub 164: "Compile error when using pmr::map with a std::pair; works when \ 
using a std::tuple".
GitHub 171: "deque::clear() uses undefined behaviour".

Core:
Add implicit conversion between compatible reference wrappers.
Add boost/core/cmath.hpp, a portable implementation of the floating point \ 
classification functions from <cmath>.
Add boost/core/bit.hpp, a portable implementation of the C++20 standard header \ 
<bit>.
Fix BOOST_TEST_EQ, BOOST_TEST_NE for character types under C++20.
Revise allocator access utilities (now support VS2013, and no workarounds use \ 
allocator_traits.)

DLL:
BREAKING CHANGE: boost::dll::import was renamed to boost::dll::import_symbol to \ 
avoid collision with C++20 import keyword.
Updated docs, including FAQ section.

Filesystem:
Updated compatibility with WASI platform.
Fixed an exception being thrown by path::remove_filename if the path is \ 
"////".
Fixed create_directories disregarding errors from file status query operations \ 
issued internally. This could result in incorrect error codes returned by \ 
create_directories.
GIL:
BREAKING: In next release, we are going to drop support for GCC 5. We will also \ 
change the required minimum C++ version from C++11 to C++14.

Intrusive:
Reduced compile-time dependencies:
linear_slist_algorithms use a simple node_ptr instead of std::pair on return.
list/slist use operator </operator == instead of std::equal_to/std::less.
Fixed GitHub 54: set.rbegin() looks like O(log(N))

Interprocess:
Added wchar_t API support for named resources in operating systems that offer \ 
native wide character API (e.g. Windows). The following classes were updated \ 
with wchar_t name support:
file_mapping
managed_mapped_file
managed_shared_memory
managed_windows_shared_memory
shared_memory_object
windows_shared_memory_object
file_lock
named_condition
named_condition_any
named_mutex
named_recursive_mutex
named_semaphore
named_sharable_mutex
named_upgradable_mutex
message_queue
Added BOOST_INTERPROCESS_FORCE_NATIVE_EMULATION macro option to disable the use \ 
of generic emulation code for process shared synchronization primitives instead \ 
of native POSIX or Winapi functions.
Fixed bugs:
GitHub 76 ("Cygwin compilation errors").
GitHub 83 ("Add BOOST_INTERPROCESS_FORCE_NATIVE_EMULATION option").
GitHub 92 ("bufferstream: Correct MSVC compilation warning").
GitHub 106 ("Use fallocate on truncate_file").
GitHub 120 ("segment_manager customization").
GitHub 122 ("Mark constructors/assignment/swap noexcept where possible").
GitHub 126 ("_ReadWriteBarrier is deprecated warning when compiling with \ 
clang-cl.exe").

JSON:
Security Report from Bishop Fox.
Refactored value_from implementation; user customizations are now always \ 
preferred over library-provided overloads.
Fix imprecise parsing for some floating point numbers.
Fix link errors in standalone mode, when used alongside Boost.
Fix Boost.Build builds on GCC 4.8.

LexicalCast:
Dropped dependency on Boost.Math
Fixes for the CI and coverage
Log:
Bug fixes:
Corrected a formal race condition in the thread-safe log record queue \ 
implementation used in the unbounded_fifo_queue policy of the asynchronous_sink \ 
frontend. The race could be detected by TSAN, but it was not a real problem on \ 
most current CPU architectures and compilers.
When copying a logger with a channel attribute (e.g. channel_logger), the \ 
channel attribute is now deep-copied from the original logger. This means that \ 
modifying the channel in the new logger will no longer affect the original \ 
logger.
Replaced the use of std::allocator<void> in template parameters with a new \ 
tag type boost::log::use_std_allocator to silence libc++ warnings about the \ 
former being deprecated in C++17 and later. The tag indicates that the \ 
instantiated template should be using a specialization of std::allocator \ 
internally to allocate dynamic memory, so the change has no functional effect.
Boost.Log no longer defines __MSVCRT_VERSION__ macro on MinGW and MinGW-w64. \ 
Defining this macro caused incompatibility with UCRT, which is available as an \ 
option in recent MinGW-w64.
See changelog for more details.

Math:
Breaking Change: C++03 support is now removed, a C++11 or later conformant \ 
compiler is now required to use this library.
Added Z-test.
Added execution policy support to univariate and bivariate statistics: enables \ 
parallel execution (requires C++17 and <execution>).
Big update/improvement on CI testing.
Bivariate statistics now have integer support.
T-Test now has integer support.
Linear regression now has integer support.
Correct PDF of the beta distribution at the endpoints.
Correct use of Stirling's approximation in certain multiprecision cases.
Eliminate -Wimplicit-int-float-conversion on clang.
Fix some constexpr issues in quaternion/octonion.
Minor performance fix to tanh_sinh integration.
Update hypergeometric functions internal scaling to allow for 64-bit (long long) \ 
exponents with multiprecision types.

Move:
Git Issue 35: "New nothrow move traits are incomplete".

Multiprecision:
BREAKING CHANGE: Massive refactoring and code simplification makes C++11 an \ 
absolute requirement.
Use BOOST_TRY/CATCH in headers so code can be used in exception-free environments.
Correct corner case in pow.
Correct exception type thrown to match docs in lsb/msb.
Allow moves and operators between related but different types (ie types with the \ 
same allocator).

Nowide:
Fix discarding of characters for text file streams when seek or sync functions \ 
are used and newlines were converted (e.g. on Windows)
Fix potential use-after-free bug when reusing (via open) a file stream that has \ 
been closed
Fix potential invalid memory access when using a file stream that has been moved \ 
or swapped to where the source had a put-back character or was set to unbuffered \ 
mode
Fix compatibility with ucrt runtime by not defining __MSVCRT_VERSION__
Known issues: Read performance for text files is degraded. Binary files and \ 
writing is unaffected.

Optional:
Fixed MSVC warning C4702.

Outcome:
Announcements:
BREAKING CHANGE: After a year and three major Boost releases announcing this \ 
upcoming change, this is the FIRST RELEASE of the v2.2 branch. This branch has a \ 
number of major breaking changes to the Outcome v2.1 which shipped in Boost 1.75 \ 
and earlier, see the documentation for details.
Enhancements:
VS2019.8 changed how to enable Coroutines, which caused Outcome to not compile \ 
on that compiler.
If on C++ 20, we now use C++ 20 [[likely]] instead of compiler-specific markup \ 
to indicate when TRY has likely success or failure.
BREAKING CHANGE: Previously the value of spare_storage(const \ 
basic_result|basic_outcome *) noexcept was not propagated over \ 
BOOST_OUTCOME_TRY, which causes things like stack backtraces captured at the \ 
point of construction of an errored result to get dropped at every TRY point. \ 
This has been fixed by adding an optional spare_storage to success_type<T> \ 
and failure_type<T>, as well as to auto success(T &&, ...) and \ 
auto failure(T &&, ...).
Bug fixes:
Boost.Outcome should now compile with BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS defined. Thanks to \ 
Emil, maintainer of Boost.Exception, making a change for me, Boost.Outcome \ 
should now compile with C++ exceptions globally disabled. You won't be able to \ 
use boost::exception_ptr as it can't be included if C++ exceptions are globally \ 
disabled.
BREAKING CHANGE 244 It came as a shock to learn that BOOST_OUTCOME_TRY had been \ 
broken since the inception of this library for certain corner case code, which \ 
required a breaking change in how TRY works. See the changelog in the \ 
documentation for more detail.

Parameter:
Added a workaround for MSVC 2015 code miscompilation when an rvalue was used as \ 
a default value of a named parameter of a function.

PFR:
Fixed reflection of types with missing const in SFINAE expressions in template \ 
constructor. Now reflection of aggregates with \ 
std::optional<std::chrono::duration<???>> fields works on any \ 
Standard Library implementation, even if LWG3050 is not fixed.
Comparison functions are now constexpr
Fixed numerous typos in docs

PolyCollection:
Worked around GCC bug affecting GCC versions 9.3-10.2.

Predef:
Version 1.13
Add ARCH_PPC_64 predef.
Fix ARCH_WORD_BITS* redefinition warnings/errors.
Add ARCH_E2K, Elbrus 2000, architecture from Konstantin Ivlev.
Fix not handling recent C++ version that go above 10.x version.
Version 1.12
Switch to using the endian.h header on OpenBSD. (Brad Smith)
Fix not handling recent versions of stdcxx that go above version 9.
Fix including sub-BSD OS headers directly causing redef warnings.
Add CI testing of direct inclusion of all headers.
Add CI testing on FreeBSD for clang and gcc.
Add WORD_BITS set of predefs to detect the architecture word size. Initial \ 
implementation inspired by submission from Mikhail Komarov.
Add CI testing for Cygwin 32 and 64.

PropertyTree:
Property Tree has a new maintainer.
Fix usage of deprecated Boost.Bind features.
Link to Wikipedia fixed.
Use BOOST_OVERRIDE to fix GCC warnings.
Add extensive CI testing.

Regex:
Regex is now header only except in C++03 mode.
Support for C++03 is now deprecated.
The library can now be used "standalone" without the rest of Boost \ 
being present.

Stacktrace:
Better support for pre-C++11 builds on clang.
Bigger warning for do not use boost::stacktrace::stacktrace in signal handlers.

TypeTraits:
Fix for Visual Studio managed code projects.

Variant2:
Improved generated code for the double buffered case.

Updated Tools
Build:
Includes release of B2 version 4.4.1.

        performance of waiting and notifying operations in heavily contended
        cases.

          o #169: flood of warnings building dlmalloc_ext_2_8_6.c on clang11.
  * Endian:
      + endian_arithmetic no longer inherits from endian_buffer
      + When BOOST_ENDIAN_NO_CTORS is defined, the unaligned endian_buffer and
        endian_arithmetic are C++03 PODs, to enable use of __attribute__((
        packed))
  * Filesystem:
      + New: Added creation_time operation, which allows to obtain file
        creation time. (Inspired by PR#134)
      + The returned value of last_write_time(p, ec) operation in case of
        failure has been changed to a minimal value representable by std::
        time_t instead of -1.
      + The returned value of hard_link_count(p, ec) operation in case of
        failure has been changed to static_cast<uintmax_t>(-1) instead of 0.
      + On POSIX systems, file_size will now indicate error code errc::
        function_not_supported if the path resolves to a non-regular file.
        Previously, errc::operation_not_permitted was reported.
      + On Linux, many operations now use statx system call internally, when
        possible, which allows to reduce the amount of information queried from
        the filesystem and potentially improve performance. The statx system
        call was introduced in Linux kernel 4.11.
      + Removed const-qualification from return types of some path methods.
        This could prevent move construction and move assignment at the call
        site in some cases. (#160)
      + On OpenBSD 4.4 and newer, use statvfs system call to obtain filesystem
        space information. (Inspired by PR#162)
      + On Windows, space now returns with an error if the provided path does
        not idendify an existing file. (#167)
  * GIL:
      + BREAKING: In next release, we are going to drop support for GCC 5. We
        may also change the required minimum C++ version from C++11 to C++14.
  * Histogram:
      + This update brings
          o Bug-fixes for corner-cases
          o Small documentation improvements
          o Fixes for new warnings from latest compilers and when compiling
            against the C++20 standard
      + See the full Release Notes for a complete list of changes.
  * Interprocess:
      + Fixed bugs:
          o #127: static assertion failure with boost interprocess 1.74 and
            basic_managed_shared_memory.
  * Intrusive:
      + Fixed bugs:
          o PR#48: MSVC "assignment within conditional" warning fix.
          o PR#49: Fix empty control statement warnings.
          o #52: Invalid casting in BOOST_INTRUSIVE_BSR_INTRINSIC.
  * Log:
      + Bug fixes:
          o Corrected the file counter that would be used in text_file_backend
            when generating the target file name (based on the pattern set by
            set_target_file_name_pattern method) when the log file is rotated.
            (#125)
          o Replaced a volatile version counter in basic_sink_frontend with an
            atomic. (#128)
          o In the asynchronous_sink frontend, resolved a possible conflict
            between flush and run methods, if run is called from a user's
            thread instead of the internal dedicated thread spawned by the
            frontend. (#131)
      + See changelog for more details.
  * Move:
      + Fixed bugs:
          o #30: (void) C-cast is a non-portable way of suppressing compiler
            warnings.
  * Mp11:
      + Added mp_pairwise_fold (suggested by Barry Revzin)
      + Removed mp_invoke (use mp_invoke_q)
  * Optional:
      + boost::none is constexpr-declared.
      + Fixed issue #78.
  * Outcome:
      + Announcements:
          o After a year and three major Boost releases announcing this
            upcoming change, this is the FINAL RELEASE of the v2.1 branch. From
            Boost 1.76 onwards, the v2.2 branch becomes the default. This
            branch has a number of major breaking changes to Outcome v2.1, see
            the documentation for details.
      + Enhancements:
          o The ADL discovered event hooks have been replaced with
            policy-specified event hooks instead. This is due to brittleness
            (where hooks would quietly self-disable if somebody changed
            something), compiler bugs (a difference in compiler settings causes
            the wrong hooks, or some but not all hooks, to get discovered), and
            end user difficulty in using them at all. The policy-specified
            event hooks can be told to default to ADL discovered hooks for
            backwards compatibility: set OUTCOME_ENABLE_LEGACY_SUPPORT_FOR to
            less than 220 to enable emulation.
          o Improve configuring OUTCOME_GCC6_CONCEPT_BOOL. Older GCCs had
            boolean based concepts syntax, whereas newer GCCs are standards
            conforming. However the precise logic of when to use legacy and
            conforming syntax was not well understood, which caused Outcome to
            fail to compile depending on what options you pass to GCC. The new
            logic always uses the legacy syntax if on GCC 8 or older, otherwise
            we use conforming syntax if and only if GCC is in C++ 20 mode or
            later. This hopefully will resolve the corner case build failures
            on GCC.
      + Bug fixes:
          o Boost.Outcome should now compile with BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS defined.
            Thanks to Emil, maintainer of Boost.Exception, making a change for
            me, Boost.Outcome should now compile with C++ exceptions globally
            disabled. You won't be able to use boost::exception_ptr as it can't
            be included if C++ exceptions are globally disabled.
          o #236 In the Coroutine support the final_suspend() was not noexcept,
            despite being required to be so in the C++ 20 standard. This has
            been fixed, but only if your compiler implements noop_coroutine.
            Additionally, if noop_coroutine is available, we use the much more
            efficient coroutine handle returning variant of await_suspend()
            which should significantly improve codegen and context switching
            performance.
  * Polygon:
      + C++20 fixes for event_comparison_type, vertex_equality_predicate_type,
        and voronoi_predicates. (Glen Fernandes)
  * Preprocessor:
      + When variadic data is empty in C++20 mode with __VA_OPT__ support the
        variadic size has been corrected to be 0. This also means that in this
        C++20 mode it is now valid to convert to and from empty arrays and
        lists and variadic data. The end-user can read the "C++20 Support For
        Variadic Macros" part of the "variadic macros" topic for more
        information about empty variadic data in the library.
      + The macro BOOST_PP_IS_STANDARD() has been added for identifying if the
        currently used preprocessor is a C++ standard conforming preprocessor.
        A number of preprocessors which generally work correctly with the
        library but need various internal workarounds, including the currently
        default VC++ preprocessor, are not considered C++ standard conforming
        preprocessors. However most preprocessors, including among others gcc,
        clang, and the new but currently non-default VC++ preprocessor in
        VS2019, are C++ standard conforming preprocessors.
      + For C++ standard conforming preprocessors a number of the limits
        defined in the config/limits.hpp can now be changed to higher amounts
        for a TU. The end-user should read the "limitations" topic to
        understand how and which limits can be changed.
      + For C++ standard conforming preprocessors, in order to allow the
        maximum number of FOR and WHILE iterations, the beginning 'r' and 'd'
        iteration numbers in the user-defined macros start at 1 and not 2, as
        it did in previous releases. This could be a breaking change if these
        iteration numbers are used in the user-defined macros ( they probably
        would not be ), but the change was necessary to fix some arcane bugs
        when dealing with numerical/logical operations with maximum numbers as
        well to allow the user-defined macros to be called the correct possible
        maximum number of times. For non-C++ conforming preprocessors, this
        change was not made because those non-conforming C++ preprocessors
        generally have limitations which disallow the maximum number of looping
        constructs to be run, and it was felt not to introduce a possible
        breaking change to those more fragile preprocessors would be better. It
        was also felt that besides fixing some arcane preprocessor bugs and
        providing the possible maximum number of user-defined macro
        invocations, this change could be made because it has never been
        documented what the starting 'r' and 'd' iteration numbers actually are
        but only that these numbers are incremented for each iteration.
      + The library has been upgraded to assume variadic macro support for any
        compiler working with the library. Ostensibly this means that the
        library is now a C++11 on up library, yet most of the major compilers,
        including gcc, clang, and VC++, also support variadic macros in C++98/
        C++03 mode as long as strict compliance to C++98/C++03 is not turned on
        when using one of those compilers.
  * Rational:
      + Fix Rational operators to not break under new C++20 operator==
        rewriting rules. (Glen Fernandes)
  * Signals2:
      + Correct C++ allocator model support to fix compilation in C++20
        standards mode. (Glen Fernandes)
  * System:
      + The platform-specific headers windows_error.hpp, linux_error.hpp, and
        cygwin_error.hpp emit deprecation messages and are slated for removal.
      + The old names for generic_category() and system_category() emit
        deprecation messages and are slated for removal.
      + error_condition::failed is deprecated and is slated for removal.
        operator bool() for error_condition has been reverted to its old
        meaning of value() != 0. This is done for compatibility with std::
        error_condition as the next release is expected to improve
        interoperability with <system_error> even further. Note that this does
        not affect error_code::failed, which is still alive and well.
      + The overload of error_condition::message that takes a buffer is
        deprecated and is slated for removal, for the same reasons. Note that
        this does not affect error_code::message.
  * uBLAS:
      + Correct C++ allocator model support to fix compilation in C++20
        standards mode. (Glen Fernandes and Conrad Poelman)
  * VMD:
      + The VMD number parsing has been upgraded to support the ability for the
        end-user to change the number limits in the Preprocessor library.
      + The macro BOOST_VMD_IS_GENERAL_IDENTIFIER has been added to support the
        parsing of input that represents a preprocessor token which matches the
        VMD identifier syntax, without having to register the identifier as a
        specific identifier.
  * Wave:
      + Added new C++20 tokens, including the spaceship operator <=>
      + Fixed bugs:
          o #94: fix incorrect behavior of __LINE__ and __FILE__ under
            rescanning

1.74.0
New Libraries

  * STLInterfaces: A library of CRTP bases to ease the writing of STL views,
    iterators, and sequence containers, from Zach Laine.

Updated Libraries

  * Asio:
      + Added an implementation of the proposed standard executors (P0443r13,
        P1348r0, and P1393r0).
      + Added support for the proposed standard executors to Asio's I/O
        facilities.
          o The supplied executors now meet the requirements for the proposed
            standard executors. These classes also continue to meet the
            existing requirements for the Networking TS model of executors.
          o All I/O objects, asynchronous operations, and utilities will
            interoperate with both new proposed standard executors, and with
            existing Networking TS executors.
          o The any_io_executor type alias has been introduced as the default
            runtime-polymorphic executor for all I/O objects. This defaults to
            the execution::any_executor<> template. If required for backward
            compatibility, BOOST_ASIO_USE_TS_EXECUTOR_AS_DEFAULT can be defined
            to use the old asio::executor polymorphic wrapper instead.
          o Support for the existing Networking TS model of executors can be
            disabled by defining BOOST_ASIO_NO_TS_EXECUTORS.
      + Added converting move construction and assignment to
        basic_waitable_timer.
      + Enabled C++20 coroutine support when using gcc 10.
      + Added overloads of co_spawn that launch an awaitable.
      + Added a new constructor overload to use_awaitable_t's default executor
        adapter, to enable conversion between executor types.
      + Added support for using detached_t as a default completion token, by
        adding members as_default_on() and as_default_on_t<>.
      + Added a move constructor to ssl::stream<>.
      + Changed ssl::stream<> write operations to linearise gather-write buffer
        sequences.
      + Added compile-time detection of the deprecated asio_handler_invoke,
        asio_handler_allocate, and asio_handler_deallocate hooks, when
        BOOST_ASIO_NO_DEPRECATED is defined.
      + Implemented a number of performance optimisations.
      + Added source location support to handler tracking.
      + Implemented various improvements to the handlerviz.pl tool.
      + Added the handlerlive.pl tool, which processes handler tracking output
        to produce a list of "live" handlers.
      + Added the handlertree.pl tool, which filters handler tracking output to
        include only those events in the tree that produced the nominated
        handlers.
      + Added changes for clang-based Embarcadero C++ compilers.
      + Fixed a deadlock that can occur when multiple threads concurrently
        initialise the Windows I/O completion port backend.
      + Fixed async_compose to work with copyable handlers when passed by
        lvalue.
      + Fixed completion signature deduction in co_spawn.
      + Removed a spurious Executor base class from the executor_binder
        implementation.
      + Various fixes and improvements in the documentation and examples.
      + Consult the Revision History for further details.
  * Atomic:
      + Added missing const qualifiers to some operations in atomic_ref.
      + Added support for yield instruction on ARMv8-A. The instruction is used
        internally in spin loops to reduce CPU power consumption.
      + Added support for C++20 waiting and notifying operations. The
        implementation includes generic backend that involves the internal lock
        pool, as well as specialized backends for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD,
        DragonFly BSD and NetBSD. Atomic types provide a new method
        has_native_wait_notify, a static boolean constant
        always_has_native_wait_notify and a set of capability macros that allow
        to detect if the implementation supports native waiting and notifying
        operations for a given type.
      + Changed internal representation of atomic_flag to use 32-bit storage.
        This allows for more efficient waiting and notifying operations on
        atomic_flag on some platforms.
      + Added support for build-time configuration of the internal lock pool
        size. The user can define the BOOST_ATOMIC_LOCK_POOL_SIZE_LOG2 macro to
        specify binary logarithm of the size of the lock pool. The default
        value is 8, meaning that the size of the lock pool is 256, up from 64
        used in the previous release.
      + Added support for a new set of atomic types dedicated for inter-process
        communication: ipc_atomic_flag, ipc_atomic and ipc_atomic_ref. Users
        are recommended to port their code using non-IPC types for
        inter-process communication to the new types. The new types provide the
        same set of operations as their non-IPC counterparts, with the
        following differences:
          o Most operations have an added precondition that is_lock_free
            returns true for the given atomic object. The library will issue a
            compile time error if this precondition is known to be not
            satisfied at compile time.
          o All provided operations are address-free, meaning that the atomic
            object (in case of ipc_atomic_ref - the referenced object) may be
            located in process-shared memory or mapped into the same process at
            multiple different addresses.
          o The new has_native_wait_notify operation and
            always_has_native_wait_notify constant indicate support for native
            inter-process waiting and notifying operations. When that support
            is not present, the operations are implemented with a busy loop,
            which is less efficient, but still is address-free. A separate set
            of capability macros is also provided to indicate this support.
      + Added new atomic_unsigned_lock_free and atomic_signed_lock_free types
        introduced in C++20. The types indicate the atomic object type for an
        unsigned or signed integer, respectively, that is lock-free and
        preferably has native support for waiting and notifying operations.
      + Added new gcc assembler backends for ARMv8-A (for both AArch32 and
        AArch64). The new backends are used to implement operations not
        supported by compiler intrinsics (including 128-bit operations on
        AArch64) and can also be used when compiler intrinsics are not
        available. Both little and big endian targets are supported. AArch64
        backend supports extensions defined in ARMv8.1 and ARMv8.3.
      + Added support for big endian targets in the legacy ARM backend based on
        gcc assembler blocks (this backend is used on ARMv7 and older targets).
        Previously, the backend assumed little endian memory layout, which is
        significant for 64-bit operations.
      + Improved performance of seq_cst stores and thread fences on x86 by
        using lock-prefixed instructions instead of mfence. This means that the
        operations no longer affect non-temporal stores, which was also not
        guaranteed before. Use specialized instructions and intrinsics to order
        non-temporal memory accesses.
      + Fixed capability macros for 80-bit long double on x86 targets not
        indicating lock-free operations even if 128-bit atomic operations were
        available.
      + Fixed compilation of gcc asm blocks on Alpha targets.
      + In the gcc __sync* intrinsics backend, fixed that store and load
        operations of large objects (larger than a pointer size) could be
        non-atomic. The implementation currently assumes that small objects can
        be stored with a single instruction atomically on all modern
        architectures.
  * Beast:
      + This update brings bug fixes and support for the following changes
        changes in Boost.Asio:
      + Beast supports BOOST_ASIO_NO_DEPRECATED. Define this to help identify
        areas of your Beast and Asio code which use deprecated Asio interfaces.
      + Beast also supports BOOST_ASIO_NO_TS_EXECUTORS. Define this to identify
        uses of executors from the now potentially outdated Networking TS
      + Asio will use the Standard Executors model by default. You can prevent
        this behaviour by defining BOOST_ASIO_USE_TS_EXECUTOR_AS_DEFAULT in
        which the Networking TS model will be used by default. Setting this
        flag does not prevent a program from using executors from the Standard
        Executors model explicitly.
      + We'd love to know how you or your company use Beast, consider adding an
        entry to the Companies and Individuals Using Beast list.
      + See the full Release Notes for a complete list of changes.
  * Bimap:
      + Correct allocator usage (fixes C++20 compilation). (Glen Fernandes)
  * Config:
      + Implement BOOST_NO_CXX11_OVERRIDE and BOOST_OVERRIDE. (Glen Fernandes)
  * Core:
      + Implemented the allocator access utilities which provide a replacement
        for allocator_traits with individual traits and functions for each
        facility. They support the C++11 allocator model when possible and
        provide a fallback for C++98 compatibility. These are now used in
        Circular_Buffer, Wave, Lockfree, Heap, Smart_Ptr, Dynamic_Bitset,
        Format, Bimap and more. (Glen Fernandes)
  * DLL:
      + Multiple fixes for the library_info work on empty shared objects.
      + Compilation fixes for C++98 and C++11 modes (#28).
      + Fixes for smart_library manglings (thanks to XiaLiChao82 #37).
  * Endian:
      + Enabled scoped enumeration types in endian_reverse.
      + Enabled bool, enum, float, double in endian_reverse_inplace.
      + Added an overload of endian_reverse_inplace for arrays.
  * Filesystem:
      + Removed compile-time checks for support for symlinks and hardlink on
        Windows. Instead, a runtime check is used. (PR#142)
      + Fixed handling of reparse points in canonical and read_symlink on
        Windows. This also affects other algorithms that involve canonical and
        read_symlink in their implementation. (PR#100, #85, #99, #123, #125)
      + Fixed that read_symlink on Windows could potentially fail or cause
        failures elsewhere with a sharing violation error, if the same symlink
        was opened concurrently. (#138)
      + Fixed that is_symlink(directory_entry) would always return false, even
        if the directory entry actually referred to a symlink. (PR#148)
      + Added missing status inspection operation overloads for directory_entry
        and error_code (e.g. is_directory(directory_entry, error_code&)).
        Removed incorrect noexcept specifications for the overloads not taking
        the error_code arguments.
      + copy_file implementation has been updated to perform checks on the
        source and target files, as required by C++20 ([fs.op.copy.file]/4.1).
        In particular, the operation will fail if the source or target file is
        not a regular file or the source and target paths identify the same
        file.
      + copy_file on POSIX systems will now also copy the source file
        permissions to the target file, if the target file is overwritten.
      + New: Added copy_file implementations based on sendfile and
        copy_file_range system calls on Linux, which may improve file copying
        performance, especially on network filesystems.
      + Deprecated: The copy_option enumeration that is used with the copy_file
        operation is deprecated. As a replacement, the new enum copy_options
        (note the trailing 's') has been added. The new enum contains values
        similar to the copy_options enum from C++20. The old enum values are
        mapped onto the new enum. The old enum will be removed in a future
        release.
      + New: Added copy_options::skip_existing option, which allows copy_file
        operation to succeed without overwriting the target file, if it exists.
      + New: Added copy_options::update_existing option, which allows copy_file
        operation to conditionally overwrite the target file, if it exists, if
        its last write time is older than that of the replacement file.
      + New: copy_file now returns bool, which indicates whether the file was
        copied.
      + New, breaking change: copy operation has been extended and reworked to
        implement behavior specified in C++20 [fs.op.copy]. This includes
        support for copy_options::recursive, copy_options::copy_symlinks,
        copy_options::skip_symlinks, copy_options::directories_only,
        copy_options::create_symlinks and copy_options::create_hard_links
        options. The operation performs additional checks based on the
        specified options. Applying copy to a directory with default
        copy_options will now also copy files residing in that directory (but
        not nested directories or files in those directories).
      + New: Added create_directory overload taking two paths. The second path
        is a path to an existing directory, which is used as a source of
        permission attributes to use in the directory to create.
      + Deprecated: copy_directory operation has been deprecated in favor of
        the new create_directory overload. Note that the two operations have
        reversed order of the path arguments.
      + equivalent on POSIX systems now returns the actual error code from the
        OS if one of the paths does not resolve to a file. Previously the
        function would return an error code of 1. (#141)
      + equivalent no longer considers file size and last modification time in
        order to test whether the two paths refer to the same file. These
        checks could result in a false negative if the file was modified during
        the equivalent call.
      + New: Added absolute overloads taking error_code argument.
      + Operations that have current_path() as the default value of their
        arguments and also have an error_code argument will use the
        current_path(error_code& ec) overload to obtain the current path, so
        that its failure is reported via the error_code argument instead of an
        exception.
      + space now initializes the space_info structure members to -1 values on
        error, as required by C++20 ([fs.op.space]/1).
      + space on Windows now accepts paths referring to arbitrary files, not
        only directories. This is similar to POSIX systems and corresponds to
        the operation description in C++20. (#73)
      + New: Added implementation of temp_directory_path for Windows CE. (PR#25
        )
      + New: Improved compatibility with WASI platform. (PR#144)
      + New: Improved support for Embarcadero compilers. (PR#130)
      + New: Added implementations of unique_path operation based on getrandom
        (Linux), arc4random_buf (OpenBSD/FreeBSD/CloudABI) and BCrypt (Windows)
        system APIs.
      + Deprecated: Auto-linking against system libraries on Windows with
        MSVC-compatible compilers is deprecated and will be removed in a future
        release. This affects users linking against static library of
        Boost.Filesystem. Users are advised to update their project build
        systems to either use a shared library of Boost.Filesystem, or
        explicitly specify the dependencies of Boost.Filesystem in the linker
        command line. Users of shared library of Boost.Filesystem are not
        affected.
  * Flyweight:
      + Maintenance work.
  * Format:
      + Correct allocator usage (fixes C++20 compilation). (Glen Fernandes)
  * Geometry:
      + Improvements
          o PR#720 Additional R-tree constructors (thanks to Caian Benedicto).
          o Various improvements in buffer, set and relational operations.
      + Solved issues
          o #709 memcpy called for object with no trivial copy-assignment.
          o #721 Compilation error in bgi::detail::rtree::visitors::insert.
          o #727 MSVC warning: conditional expression is constant.
      + Bugfixes
          o PR#700 Missing cases for default strategies in distance algorithm.
          o PR#738 Longitudes out of range in direct geodesic formulas.
  * GIL:
      + Added
          o Added new constructor initializing any_image from r-value reference
            to any image (PR#486).
          o Implemented mechanism to reverse kernel_2d (PR#489).
      + Changed
          o BREAKING: Replace Boost.Variant with Boost.Variant2 (PR#474) which
            completes removal on uses of Boost.MPL (missing from Boost 1.72.0
            change added PR#274).
          o Use perfect forwarding from apply_operation to visit (PR#491).
      + Removed
          o BREAKING: Removed dependency on Boost.Variant
      + Fixed
          o Fixed invalid conversion from RGB8 to CMYK32 due to overflow (PR#
            470).
          o Fixed image constructor from other image (PR#477).
          o Fixed error plane_view_t is not a class or namespace name (PR#481).
          o Fixed interleaved_view factory using point<std::ptrdiff_t> for
            dimension (PR#487).
          o Fixed documentation replacing uses MPL with MP11 in tutorial (PR#
            494).
          o Fixed missing header in numeric/kernel.hpp to make it
            self-contained (PR#502).
      + Acknowledgements
          o Samuel Debionne, Pranam Lashkari, Mateusz Loskot, Debabrata Mandal
  * Heap:
      + Correct destruction of top node in skew_heap. (Glen Fernandes)
      + Correct and simplify allocator use. (Glen Fernandes)
  * Integer:
      + Fixed compilation of gcd in C++20 mode with clang 10.
      + Improved support for Embarcadero compilers. (PR#21)
  * Iterator:
      + boost/function_output_iterator.hpp header is now deprecated. Users
        should replace its inclusion with boost/iterator/
        function_output_iterator.hpp. (PR#51)
      + Improved support for Embarcadero compilers. (PR#55)
  * LexicalCast:
      + Fixed warnings on missing override (thanks to EugeneZelenko #35, #34).
      + Fixes for the the Embarcadero compilers (thanks to Edward Diener).
  * Log:
      + Bug fixes:
          o The syslog sink backend now verifies the IP version of the local
            and target addresses set by user. The addresses must have the same
            IP version as was specified in the ip_version named parameter on
            the sink backend construction (by default, IPv4 is assumed). When
            an address is obtained as a result of host name resolution, only
            addresses with matching IP version are considered. (#119)
      + New Features:
          o Move constructors and assignment operators of various components
            were marked noexcept.
          o Added a new range_manip stream manipulator that can be used for
            outputting elements of a range, optionally separated by a
            delimiter.
          o Added a new tuple_manip stream manipulator that can be used for
            outputting elements of a tuple or any other heterogeneous sequence,
            optionally separated by a delimiter.
          o Added a new optional_manip stream manipulator that can be used for
            outputting optionally present values.
      + See changelog for more details.
  * Mp11:
      + Improved compilation performance of mp_with_index<N> for large N.
      + Added tuple_transform (contributed by Hans Dembinski.)
  * Multi-index Containers:
      + Added node extraction and insertion following the analogous interface
        of associative containers as introduced in C++17. This feature has also
        been extended to non key-based indices, in contrast to C++ standard
        library sequence containers, which do not provide such functionality.
      + Clarified documentation on read/write key extractors (issue #32).
      + Maintenance work.
  * Nowide:
      + The library now requires a C++11-compliant compiler and stdlib
      + LFS: Add support for files > 2 GB where the underlying system supports
        it
      + Generic UTF conversion functions are now available in the boost::nowide
        ::utf namespace
      + Add support for stat with UTF-8 paths
  * Outcome:
      + Announcements:
          o The v2.1 branch is expected to be retired end of 2020, with the
            v2.2 branch becoming the default. You can use the future v2.2
            branch now using better_optimisation. This branch has a number of
            major breaking changes to Outcome v2.1, see the front page for
            details.
      + Enhancements:
          o BREAKING CHANGE void results and outcomes no longer default
            construct types during explicit construction. Previously if you
            explicitly constructed a result<T> from a non-errored \ 
result<void>,
            it default constructed T. This was found to cause unhelpful
            surprise, so it has been disabled.
          o New macro OUTCOME_ENABLE_LEGACY_SUPPORT_FOR. The macro
            OUTCOME_ENABLE_LEGACY_SUPPORT_FOR can be used to enable aliasing of
            older naming and features to newer naming and features when using a
            newer version of Outcome.
          o Concepts now have snake case style naming instead of camel case
            style. When Outcome was first implemented, it was thought that C++
            20 concepts were going to have camel case style. This was changed
            before the C++ 20 release, and Outcome's concepts have been renamed
            similarly. This won't break any code in Outcome v2.1, as
            compatibility aliases are provided. However code compiled against
            Outcome v2.2 will need to be upgraded, unless
            OUTCOME_ENABLE_LEGACY_SUPPORT_FOR is set to 210 or lower.
          o Concepts now live in OUTCOME_V2_NAMESPACE::concepts namespace.
            Previously concepts lived in the convert namespace, now they live
            in their own namespace.
          o New concepts basic_result<T> and basic_outcome<T> added. \ 
End users
            were finding an unhelpful gap in between is_basic_result<T> and
            value_or_error<T> where they wanted a concept that matched types
            which were basic_result, but not exactly one of those. Concepts
            filling that gap were added.
          o Operation TRY works differently from Outcome v2.2 onwards. This is
            a severely code breaking change which change the syntax of how one
            uses OUTCOME_TRY(). A regular expression suitable for upgrading
            code can be found in the list of changes between Outcome v2.1 and
            v2.2.
      + Bug fixes:
          o #224 The clang Apple ships in Xcode 11.4 (currently the latest) has
            not been patched with the fixes to LLVM clang that fix noexcept(std
            ::is_constructible<T, void>) failing to compile which I originally
            submitted years ago. So give up waiting on Apple to fix their
            clang, add a workaround to Outcome.
          o Spare storage could not be used from within no-value policy
            classes. Due to an obvious brain fart when writing the code at the
            time, the spare storage APIs had the wrong prototype which
            prevented them working from within policy classes. Sorry.

math/blas, math/lapack: Install interchangeable BLAS system

Install the new interchangeable BLAS system created by Thomas Orgis,
currently supporting Netlib BLAS/LAPACK, OpenBLAS, cblas, lapacke, and
Apple's Accelerate.framework.  This system allows the user to select any
BLAS implementation without modifying packages or using package options, by
setting PKGSRC_BLAS_TYPES in mk.conf. See mk/blas.buildlink3.mk for details.

This commit should not alter behavior of existing packages as the system
defaults to Netlib BLAS/LAPACK, which until now has been the only supported
implementation.

Details:

Add new mk/blas.buildlink3.mk for inclusion in dependent packages
Install compatible Netlib math/blas and math/lapack packages
Update math/blas and math/lapack MAINTAINER approved by adam@
OpenBLAS, cblas, and lapacke will follow in separate commits
Update direct dependents to use mk/blas.buildlink3.mk
Perform recursive revbump

Log message:
boost: updated to 1.73.0

1.73.0:

Known Issues
------------
These are patches from library authors which were found too late to be fixed in \ 
the release. Be careful as they have not been through the normal testing \ 
process.

New Libraries
-------------
Nowide:
Standard library functions with UTF-8 API on Windows, from Artyom Beilis.

StaticString:
A dynamically resizable string of characters with compile-time fixed capacity \ 
and contiguous embedded storage, from Vinnie Falco and Krystian Stasiowski

Updated Libraries
-----------------
Align:
* Update aligned_alloc to support older mingw32.
Any:
* Speedup compilation by not including <algorithm>.
* Maintenance work, including CI hardening.
Asio:
* Fixed compatibility with C++20 concept syntax.
* Marked the POSIX descriptor classes' move constructors as noexcept.
* Added the ssl::host_name_verification class, which is a drop-in replacement \ 
for ssl::rfc2818_verification. The ssl::rfc2818_verification class has been \ 
marked as deprecated. As a consequence of this change, SSL support now depends \ 
on functions that were introduced in OpenSSL 1.0.2.
* Added an ssl::context constructor to take ownership of a native handle.
* Changed C++ language version detection with gcc to use __cplusplus macro.
* Fixed a work counting issue in the asynchronous resolve operation for endpoints.
* Fixed the strand<> converting constructors and assignment operators.
* Ensured that resolvers are restarted correctly after a fork.
* Fixed compatibility with the current NetBSD release.
* Removed spurious handler requirement checks in some async_read overloads.
* Changed the ssl::context class to propagate non-EOF errors from the \ 
add_certificate_authority function.
* Fixed a Windows-specific thread_pool destructor hang that occurred when the \ 
pool had an associated I/O object.
* Changed the select reactor to recreate the "self pipe trick" sockets \ 
on error. This addresses an issue on some versions of Windows, where these \ 
sockets are discconected after a system sleep.
* Fixed a compile error in the buffered streams due to the lack of reference \ 
collapsing in C++98.
* Changed the priority_scheduler example to demonstrate calls to shutdown() and \ 
destroy().
* Removed some unnecessary null pointer checks.
* Changed Windows platform detection to recognise TV titles as Windows apps.
* Added some emscripten compatibility patches.
* Fixed a compile error in the use_awaitable_t::as_default_on function.
* Changed all uses of the boost.bind placeholders to use the boost::placeholders \ 
namespace.
* Fixed a potential compile error in the async_compose implementation due to \ 
incorrect overload selection.
* Suppressed some non-virtual destructor warnings.
* Various documentation fixes and improvements.
Assert:
* Added source_location.
Atomic:
* Implemented C++20 atomic_ref. See docs and especially the caveats section.
* Implemented atomic_flag::test operation, which was introduced in C++20.
* atomic<T> should now take into account alignment requirements of T, \ 
which makes a difference if those requirements are higher than that of the \ 
internal storage of atomic.
* Added static asserts enforcing the requirements on the value type T used with \ 
atomic and atomic_ref. This should prohibit invalid types from being used as \ 
atomics.
* Improved internal lock pool implementation. The pool is larger, and lock \ 
selection accounts for atomic object alignment, which should reduce the \ 
potential of thread contention.
* Fixed incorrect x86 code generated for bit_test_and_* operations on 8 and \ 
16-bit arguments. Other architectures are not affected.
* Fixed a possible unaligned memory access in compare_exchange_* operations, if \ 
alignment requirements of value_type are less than that of the internal storage \ 
of atomic.
* boost/atomic/atomic.hpp no longer includes boost/atomic/atomic_flag.hpp and \ 
boost/atomic/fences.hpp and only defines the boost::atomic class template and \ 
related typedefs. Include the other headers explicitly or use boost/atomic.hpp \ 
to include all parts of Boost.Atomic.
* The atomic<T>::storage() accessor and associated \ 
atomic<T>::storage_type type are deprecated. Instead, users are advised to \ 
use atomic<T>::value() and atomic<T>::value_type, respectively. \ 
Users can define BOOST_ATOMIC_SILENCE_STORAGE_DEPRECATION to disable deprecation \ 
warnings for the time of transition. The deprecated pieces will be removed in a \ 
future release.
* Removed support for BOOST_ATOMIC_DETAIL_HIGHLIGHT_OP_AND_TEST. This macro was \ 
used as a helper for transition to the updated returned values of *_and_test \ 
operations in Boost.Atomic 1.67, which was released 2 years before 1.73.
Beast:
* This is a maintenance update.
* Nested mutable_data_type in Beast dynamic buffers is deprecated.
* We'd love to know how you or your company use Beast, consider adding an entry \ 
to the Companies and Individuals Using Beast list.
* See the full Release Notes for a complete list of changes.
Context:
* IBM Z: Fix fcontext routines
* mips64/n64: .align 3
* Use OSPLAT MIPS32/MIPS64 to set different ABI
* Fix non-PIC in RISC-V assembly

* Added boost::polymorphic_downcast for references (thanks to Julien Delacroix \ 
for the patch).
* Significant docs update.
date_time:
* Support constexpr in c++14 and above
* Make date_time all inline. Users no longer need to link the library for any \ 
functions. Library remains for build compatibility.
* Deprecate support for legacy io and USE_DATE_TIME_PRE_1_33_FACET_IO macro
* Misc documentation updates and bugfixes.
DLL:
* Fixes and tests for demangling in boost::dll::smart_library
* Make UB sanitizers happy with boost::dll::load_mode::type
* Ceased dependence on MPL improving compile times
* Clang and ICC on Windows fixes and CI support for those platforms
* Maintenance work, including CI hardening and tests improving.
Dynamic Bitset:
* Fixed a portability issue in the definition of the maximum block limit.
Flyweight:
* Maintenance work.
Geometry:
* Improvements
  - Missing input combinations in intersection() and introduction of tupled-output.
  - Added d3::point_xyz geometry model (thanks to Digvijay Janartha).
* Solved issues
  - Incorrect definition of EPSG:3785.
* Bugfixes
  - R-tree exception-safety improvement.
  - Andoyer inverse formula fixed for close points.
  - Fixed dangling reference in distance algorithm.
* Deprecation
  - Support for C++03 has been deprecated and Geometry will require C++14 from \ 
Boost 1.75 onwards.
GIL:
* Added move constructor and move assignment operator to image class
* New member function size() in any_image_view class
* Replace Boost.Test with Boost.LightweightTest as the only test framework used \ 
in GIL. This also restructured the test/extension/io/ sub-tree and targets in \ 
related Jamfile-s.
* Removed remaining uses of Boost.MPL
* Renamed all macros using BOOST_GIL_ prefix
* Renamed all CMake configuration options using BOOST_GIL_ prefix
* Removed extension/dynamic_image/reduce.hpp as unused and possibly unfinished. \ 
An implementation attempt of techniques described in the paper Efficient \ 
Run-Time Dispatching in Generic Programming with Minimal Code Bloat by Lubomir \ 
Bourdev, Jaakko Jarvi.
* Removed direct dependency on Boost.MPL, Boost.System and Boost.Test.
* Started removing public macros for compile-time configuration of I/O extension \ 
tests, i.e. BOOST_GIL_IO_TEST_ALLOW_READING_IMAGES and \ 
BOOST_GIL_IO_TEST_ALLOW_WRITING_IMAGES. Instead, if a test target is built, it \ 
builds all its test cases unconditionally.
* Avoid longjmp interaction during destruction of I/O extension objects.
* Fixed missing alignment default value in constructor of image class.
* Fixed segmentation fault when reading corrupted PNG file.
* Fixed illegal initialization of return values in the old IOv1 interface of I/O \ 
extension.
Histogram:
* Added crop command to reduce algorithm
* slice command in reduce now works on category axis
* Added count accumulator, can be used to add arbitrary metadata to each cell
* sum algorithm gained a new argument to optionally sum only over inner bins
* Several fixes for bugs in corner cases
* Enhanced documentation
icl:
* Remove references to date_time compiled library.
* Fix forward decl lower and upper less equal.
* Misc bugfixes.
IO:
* Made all the IOS state saver classes non-copyable. (Glen Fernandes)
* Correctly handle error upon first read from the input stream when reading a \ 
quoted string. (Glen Fernandes)
* Implemented ostream_joiner for delimiter based joining. (Glen Fernandes)
* Relocated ostream_string from the Utility library to the IO library as ostream_put.
* Correctly handle stream width and fill in quoted output. (Glen Fernandes)
* Optimize quoted output to write directly to the stream buffer. (Glen Fernandes)
* Glen Fernandes became the maintainer of the IO library.
LexicalCast:
* Maintenance work, including CI hardening and better workarounds for broken \ 
standard libraries
Log:
* Default sink used in trivial logging, when no sinks are registered in the \ 
logging core, now automatically flushes output after each log record
* core::flush now performs a flush on the default sink used for trivial logging, \ 
when no sinks are registered.
* Added a workaround for some syslog API implementations (e.g. glibc), which do \ 
not save the application identification string in openlog call. Such \ 
implementations could access already freed memory on each syslog call, resulting \ 
in undefined behavior.
* Fixed that log file rotation on a specific day of month (e.g. \ 
rotation_at_time_point(boost::gregorian::greg_day(1))) could be silently ignored \ 
and not happen.
* Fixed that text_file_backend::rotate_file could throw if there were no log \ 
records written yet and target file name pattern was set.
* Ported various components of the library to std::allocator_traits to improve \ 
compatibility with C++20 allocators.
* Fixed compilation errors when building in MSYS2 Cygwin environment.
Math:
IMPORTANT: C++03 support is now deprecated and will be removed from March 2021.
* Added Cubic Hermite Interpolation.
* Added Modified Akima Interpolation.
* Added PCHIP Interpolation.
* Added Quintic Hermite Interpolation.
* Added entropy to numerous distributions.
* Allow trivial quadrature case where the two end points are equal, and in \ 
addition allow bounds to be interchanged.
* Fix exp_sinh quadrature to work with complex types over a non-native range.
* Fix miscellaneous compiler warnings in factorial.hpp.
* Use std::chrono rather than boost::chrono in timed pFq calculations.
* Remove much of the old boost::mpl dependencies to improve constexpr support.
Mp11:
* Added mp_unique_if (contributed by Kris Jusiak)
* Added mp_flatten
* Added mp_rotate_left, mp_rotate_right (contributed by Duncan Barber)
* Added mp_compose
* Added mp_power_set
* Added mp_partial_sum
* Added mp_iterate
Multi-index Containers:
* multi_index_container is now AllocatorAware.
* Swapping of internal KeyFromValue, Compare, Hash and Pred objects now selects \ 
the appropriate swap function between std::swap and ADL candidates, in \ 
accordance with standard specifications in [swappable.requirements]
* Provided some internal copy constructors and assignment operators whose \ 
default implicit definition is deprecated in C++11 onwards ([depr.impldec]), \ 
which was warned about on some compilers.
Multiprecision:
* IMPORTANT: Mark C++03 support as deprecated and due for removal in 2021.
* Big update to cpp_int adds faster Karatsuba and Coomba multiplication routines.
* Fix conversion of gmp_rational to long double and __float128
* Fix up libtommath support to function with the latest libtom releases.
* Fix up some incompatibilities with the latest Intel C++ compiler.
* Fix up constexpr arithmetic support for latest MSVC release.
Outcome:
* Performance of Outcome-based code compiled by clang has been greatly improved. \ 
The previous implementation of Outcome's status bitfield confused clang's \ 
optimiser, which caused low quality codegen. Unlike most codegen issues, this \ 
was noticeably in empirical benchmarks of real world code, as was shown by P1886 \ 
Error speed benchmarking.
* The safe part of the better_optimisation Outcome v2.2.0 future branch was \ 
merged to Outcome v2.1.3 which includes a new status bitfield implementation. \ 
This appears to not confuse clang's optimiser, and clang 9 produces code which \ 
routinely beats GCC 9's code for various canned use cases.
* Installability is now CI tested per commit. Due to installability of \ 
standalone Outcome (e.g. make install) breaking itself rather more frequently \ 
than is ideal, installability is now tested on CI per commit.
* Newer Concepts implementing compilers were unhappy with the early check for \ 
destructibility of T and E, so removed template constraints, falling back to \ 
static assert which runs later in the type instantiation sequence.
* A false positive undefined behaviour sanitiser failure in some use cases of \ 
Experimental Outcome was worked around to avoid the failure message.
PolyCollection:
* Suppressed a potential redundant move warning in boost::poly_collection::for_each.
* Fixed a bug by which elements were copied rather than moved in \ 
allocator-extended move construction and move assigment between collections with \ 
non-propagating, unequal allocators.
* Allocator-extended move construction no longer decays to allocator-extended \ 
copy construction for the legacy version of libstdc++-v3 shipped with GCC 4.8 \ 
(which can also be used by Clang).
Stacktrace:
* Added documentation on distribution of PDBs
* Fixed msvc-9 build
* Maintenance work, including test fixes fixing typos CI improvements and \ 
hardening, inspect tool fixes.
Test:
* Boost.test v3.13 see the Changes log for more details.
* New feature: It is now possible to combine tolerance indication, user message \ 
and collection comparison modifier in a single BOOST_TEST expression. See change \ 
logs for more details.
ThrowException:
* Added an overload of throw_exception that takes a boost::source_location object.
* NOTE: Projects using BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION with exceptions disabled will need \ 
to add a definition of this new overload.
TTI:
* Added introspection of function templates for more recent C++ compilers \ 
versions from gcc and vc++. as well as all versions of clang. Older versions of \ 
vc++ before 14.0 and gcc prior to 4.8 may fail.
* Added specific introspection for elements of struct/class, enum, and union \ 
types, which can be used for more fine-grained introspection than the general \ 
'type' introspection.
TypeIndex:
* Maintenance work, including CI integration with inspect tool.
Utility:
* The ostream_string facility has moved from the Utility library to the IO \ 
library as ostream_put.
Variant:
* Removed unused includes
* Fixed zero-as-null-pointer-constat warnings
* Maintenance work, including typo fixes.
Variant2:
* Added support for std::hash, boost::hash.
* variant<T...> is now trivial when all types in T... are trivial. This \ 
improves performance by enabling it to be passed to, and returned from, \ 
functions in registers.
WinAPI:
* Headers in boost/detail/winapi are deprecated and will be removed in a future \ 
release.
* Boost.WinAPI headers no longer include winerror.h. Include \ 
boost/winapi/error_codes.hpp to get Windows error codes.

Log message:
py-boost: Prune -lutil on SunOS.

This is handled correctly by the python jam file, but for some reason
$(target-os) is set to "unix" instead of "solaris" somewhere \ 
indecipherably, so
this way is just simpler.

Log message:
boost: updated to 1.72.0

Version 1.72.0

Asio:
Changed the async_initiate helper function to automatically deduce its return \ 
type, for C++11 or later.
Changed all asynchronous operations to use automatically deduced return types, \ 
for C++14 or later.
Introduced concepts to support async_initiate.
Added the nested template type rebind_executor to all I/O object types.
Changed the initiation function objects to report their associated I/O executor \ 
via the nested type executor_type and member function get_executor().
Added the default_completion_token trait, giving I/O executor types an \ 
associated default completion token type for use with asynchronous operations. \ 
This trait is specialised for the use_awaitable completion token, for example, \ 
to allow asynchronous operations to be used as follows: co_await \ 
socket.async_connect(my_endpoint).
Added missing async_initiate to the Windows-specific I/O objects' asynchronous \ 
operations.
Ensured that the executor type is propagated to newly accepted sockets.
Changed to require that Protocol copy and move operations never throw.
Changed to require that Endpoint default constructor and move operations never throw.
Added the noexcept qualifier to protocol accessors.
Added the noexcept qualifier to socket move constructors.
Fixed issues associated with opening serial ports on Windows:
Use the correct constant to initialise the RTS control flag.
Specify a default baud rate (9600).
Fixed a lost "outstanding work count" that can occur when an \ 
asynchronous accept operation is automatically restarted.
Consult the Revision History for further details.

Atomic:
Added a workaround for __float128 not being considered as a floating point type \ 
by some versions of libstdc++.
Improved compatibility with clang-win compiler.

Beast:
This is a maintenance update containing bug fixes, and updates to use the new \ 
features delivered in Boost.Asio.
We'd love to know how you or your company use Beast, consider adding an entry to \ 
the Companies and Individuals Using Beast list.
See the full Release Notes for a complete list of changes.

Circular Buffer:
Fix: max_size() now takes the allocator's max_size() into account. (Glen Fernandes)

Context:
architecture s390x supported
execution_context removed

Endian:
Made endian_reverse, conditional_reverse and *_to_* constexpr on GCC and Clang
Added convenience load and store functions
Added floating point convenience typedefs
Added a non-const overload of data(); changed its return type to unsigned char*
Added __int128 support to endian_reverse when available
Added a convenience header boost/endian.hpp

Filesystem:
Extracted filesystem_error to exception.hpp; file_status and associated enums \ 
and functions to file_status.hpp; directory_entry, directory_iterator and \ 
recursive_directory_iterator to directory.hpp.
Deprecated: For backward compatibility operations.hpp still includes the new \ 
headers exception.hpp, file_status.hpp and directory.hpp, unless \ 
BOOST_FILESYSTEM_NO_DEPRECATED macro is defined. These implicit includes are \ 
considered deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Users are \ 
encouraged to include the new headers directly or include filesystem.hpp.
The filesystem_error exception is now implemented in the compiled library of \ 
Boost.Filesystem. Users may need to add linking with Boost.Filesystem library in \ 
their projects.
On POSIX.1-2008 platforms, use utimensat instead of utime. utime is declared \ 
obsolete in POSIX.1-2008 and can be disabled e.g. in uClibc-ng.
directory_iterator is now left in the end state on memory allocation errors.
In directory_iterator on POSIX systems, support for readdir/readdir_r has been \ 
reworked to avoid memory allocations for dirent structures when readdir is used. \ 
This reduces memory consumption and eliminates the possibility of buffer \ 
overruns in case if readdir produces a very long directory name.
On Windows, use Boost.WinAPI to select the target Windows version.
New: Added directory_options enum, which reflects the same named enum from \ 
C++20. The enum is supported in directory_iterator and \ 
recursive_directory_iterator to customize iteration behavior. In particular, the \ 
iterators now support skipping directories that can't be opened due to \ 
insufficient permissions. The symlink_option enum is now deprecated and should \ 
be replaced with directory_options.
By default, recursive_directory_iterator is now reset to the end state in case \ 
of errors, as required by C++20.
New: Added directory_options::pop_on_error option, which configures \ 
recursive_directory_iterator so that it attempts to recover from iteration \ 
errors by repeatedly invoking pop() until it succeeds or the end state is \ 
reached.
New: Added directory_options::skip_dangling_symlinks option, which configures \ 
recursive_directory_iterator so that it doesn't follow dangling directory \ 
symlinks and continues iteration instead of reporting an error.
Deprecated: The following members of recursive_directory_iterator are now marked \ 
as deprecated: level(), no_push_pending(), no_push_request(), no_push(). Users \ 
are advised to replace their use with the standard counterparts: depth(), \ 
recursion_pending(), disable_recursion_pending(). Note that recursion_pending() \ 
has the opposite meaning compared to no_push_pending() and no_push_request(). \ 
Deprecated methods will be removed in a future release.
Fixed path::lexically_relative (and any dependent algorithms) to correctly \ 
handle empty, dot and dot-dot path elements in its argument. The behavior is \ 
made closer to C++17 std::path::lexically_relative in that empty and dot path \ 
elements are ignored and dot-dot path elements are accounted by decreasing the \ 
number of dot-dot path elements to generate in the resulting relative path.

Functional/Factory:
Glen Fernandes rewrote the implementations of factory and value_factory to \ 
provide the following features:
Support r-value arguments when possible
Support arbitrary number of arguments via variadic templates when possible
Support allocators that are final
Support allocators that use fancy pointers
Support for disabled exceptions (BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS)
Improved compilation times
The following features have been removed:
Increasing limits for C++03 compilers through \ 
BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_VALUE_FACTORY_MAX_ARITY
Using boost::none_t in place of void through BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_FACTORY_SUPPORT_NONE_T

GIL:
Added
GSoC 2019: Lanczos resampling for image down scaling.
GSoC 2019: Methods for binary thresholding, inverted binary thresholding and \ 
truncation thresholding.
GSoC 2019: Otsu thresholding method.
GSoC 2019: Adaptive thresholding using mean or gaussian-weighted sum of the \ 
neighbourhood area.

GSoC 2019: Types for defining 2D kernel, kernel_2d and kernel_2d_fixed, in \ 
Numeric extension.
GSoC 2019: Implementation of 2D convolution as new function convolve_2d.
GSoC 2019: Box filtering using the average filter.
GSoC 2019: Blur function based on normalized mean filter.
GSoC 2019: Sobel and Scharr operators.
GSoC 2019: Median filter to remove noise from image.
Continued adding new test cases and significantly improved overall test coverage.
Documented purpose of cached_location_t.
Function convolve_1d in Numeric extension for convenient use of convolve_rows \ 
and convolve_cols.
Function extend_boundary in Numeric extension to perform image boundary extension.
Project release notes maintained in Markdown file RELEASES.md.

Removed use of Boost.TypeTraits.
Dropped support for GCC <= 4.8.
Remove include/boost/gil/version.hpp file as unused.

Fixed

The headers boost/math/tools/univariate_statistics.hpp and \ 
boost/math/tools/bivariate_statistics.hpp, have been deprecated in favor of \ 
boost/math/statistics/univariate_statistics.hpp and \ 
boost/math/statistics/bivariate_statistics.hpp.
Added The Empirical CDF distribution.
Reworked the Sterling approximation used by multiprecision gamma functions to be \ 
applicable to all the function that use the Lanczos approximation at regular \ 
precision. Also extended Lanczos approximations up to 100 decimal digit \ 
precision.

Multiprecision:
Big constexpr update allows cpp_int and float128 arithmetic to be fully \ 
constexpr with gcc and clang 9 or later, or any compiler supporting \ 
std::is_constant_evaluated().
Fix bug in variable precision mpf_float which causes it to go into a tailspin \ 
trying to select the correct precision - see \ 
https://github.com/boostorg/multiprecision/issues/164.

Outcome:
Enhancements:
Standalone outcome is now make install-able, and cmake find_package() can find \ 
it. Note that you must separately install and find_package() Outcome's \ 
dependency, quickcpplib, else find_package() of Outcome will fail.
The git submodule mechanism used by standalone Outcome of specifying dependent \ 
libraries has been replaced with a cmake superbuild of dependencies mechanism \ 
instead. Upon cmake configure, an internal copy of quickcpplib will be git \ 
cloned, built and installed into the build directory from where an internal \ 
find_package() uses it. This breaks the use of the unconfigured Outcome repo as \ 
an implementation of Outcome, one must now do one of: 1. Add Outcome as \ 
subdirectory to cmake build. 2. Use cmake superbuild (i.e. \ 
ExternalProject_Add()) to build and install Outcome into a local installation. \ 
3. Use one of the single header editions.
For standalone Outcome, the current compiler is now checked for whether it will \ 
compile code containing C++ Concepts, and if it does, all cmake consumers of \ 
Outcome will enable C++ Concepts. Set the cmake variable CXX_CONCEPTS_FLAGS to \ 
an empty string to prevent auto detection and enabling of C++ Concepts support \ 
occurring.
OUTCOME_TRY operation now hints to the compiler that operation will be \ 
successful. [P1886 Error speed benchmarking](https://wg21.link/P1886) showed \ 
that there is considerable gain in very small functions by hinting to the \ 
compiler whether the expression is expected to be successful or not. OUTCOME_TRY \ 
previously did not hint to the compiler at all, but now it does. A new suite of \ 
macros OUTCOME_TRY_FAILURE_LIKELY hint to the compiler that failure is expected. \ 
If you wish to return to the previously unhinted behaviour, define \ 
OUTCOME_TRY_LIKELY(expr) to (!!expr).
Support for C++ Coroutines has been added. This comes in two parts, firstly \ 
there is now an OUTCOME_CO_TRY() operation suitable for performing the TRY \ 
operation from within a C++ Coroutine. Secondly, in the header \ 
outcome/coroutine_support.hpp there are implementations of \ 
eager<OutcomeType> and lazy<OutcomeType> which let you more \ 
naturally and efficiently use basic_result or basic_outcome from within C++ \ 
Coroutines -- specifically, if the result or outcome will construct from an \ 
exception pointer, exceptions thrown in the coroutine return an errored or \ 
excepted result with the thrown exception instead of throwing the exception \ 
through the coroutine machinery (which in current compilers, has a high \ 
likelihood of blowing up the program). Both eager<T> and lazy<T> can \ 
accept any T as well. Both have been tested and found working on VS2019 and \ 
clang 9.
make_error_code() and make_exception_ptr() are now additionally considered for \ 
compatible copy and move conversions for basic_result<>. This lets you \ 
construct a basic_result<T, E> into a basic_result<T, error_code>, \ 
where E is a custom type which has implemented the ADL discovered free function \ 
error_code make_error_code(E), but is otherwise unrelated to error_code. The \ 
same availability applies for exception_ptr with make_exception_ptr() being the \ 
ADL discovered free function. basic_outcome<> has less support for this \ 
than basic_result<> in order to keep constructor count down, but it will \ 
accept via this mechanism conversions from basic_result<> and \ 
failure_type<>.

The detection of [[nodiscard]] support in the compiler was very mildly broken.
