   We’ve just bumped Boost to 1.58.0, so this has missed the cut. If/when we bump it the next time, it’ll likely be > 1.59.0, so we’ll get the test features, however I’m not sure we need to keep a tracking issue open.

    Ok, after #22320 this issue was re-opened.

    But its description seems outdated now. Maybe update it with more clear goals?

    To make make check compatible with https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_64_0/libs/test/doc/html/boost_test/tests_organization/enabling.html, changes from #22757 are required.
