FWIW, I think we should be removing VC 6 and 7.0 workarounds, particularly in libraries where there is some real downside to continued support for these now long obsolete compilers.

While those compilers still surely are in use, the people that use them care little about the non-mainstream parts of Boost. (if they did, they would surely upgrade) By non-mainstream, I mainly mean non-TR1 stuff.
