I'd like to merge a UB fix to master for Boost.MySQL. It affects only debug builds. Not critical, but may hit some platforms. Discovered during development of new code. https://github.com/boostorg/mysql/pull/136 Thanks, Ruben.

Quite some other warnings that we've been running into in 1.80 have disappeared in the meantime: thank you very much for that. Thank you very much, Mojca

I think you’re right. The tag on the super project points to develop, and the one(s) on the sub-project all point to master. — Marshall
