Release candidate files for 1.58.0 are available at: http://boost.cowic.de/rc/

* Since rc1, the changes that were causing the serialization libraries to fail to build on MSVC have been reverted. * Since rc2, the documentation for bind, and mem_fun. No code changes.

As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.

The platform support for Haiku that was merged had a couple errors that I've managed to iron out with a few days of regression testing.

Without these additional patches [1], [2], [3], the math and functional/hash libraries are very broken. It also addresses an issue with threads, and the asio tests.

IIUC, those libraries are broken on Haiku, but not on other platforms. IMO, it is far too late in the release process to address this. --Beman
