I've checked in the attached patches to:
1. Merge changes to required toolset list from RC to HEAD 2. Merge a couple of new test markups fron HEAD to RC.
(2) applies to graph and thread libraries. I've verified that the mentioned tests exist on RC; if the library authors believe those changes should not be on RC, just say.

I don't think there should be any expected failures for the thread library on msvc.
Why there's one on HEAD? Should the markup be removed on HEAD and RC, just HEAD, just RC, or something else?
The markup should be removed on RC. As Roland explained, the new work on the thread lib is happening on a branch (it started as a major rewrite, and includes some breaking changes), so HEAD is pretty much orphaned. It's probably best to keep HEAD in sync with the RC branch for now.
