My candidates for the release criteria compilers are:

Which means that you would be dropping official boost support for a wide range of platforms, if I understand you correctly.
*No* It only means that for the 1.35.0 release we are only testing on platforms where enough testing resources have been contributed, and are running reliably.
This would make the cross platform aspect of boost kind of mood, wouldn't it?
No. Boost developers aren't going to deliberately cripple cross-platform support in their libraries. They will continue to watch the tests results for all platforms, and apply reasonable fixes when they can. --Beman
