--enable-wchar_t[default]
Template specializations for the wchar_t type are required for wide
character conversion support. Disabling wide character specializations
may be expedient for initial porting efforts, but builds only a subset
of what is required by ISO, and is not recommended. By default, this
option is on. This option can change the library ABI.

We can do instead:
Looking at that diff, maybe we could also define BOOST_NO_CWCHAR? I don't particularly mind how this is patched out. Feel free to submit something upstream, and we could switch to it, if this code isn't removed first (#35713).
I am mainly looking for Concept ACKs on the overall change, and primarily review of d890a9ecd50c9bcd069185258582c8bad3e62450 (which is shared between #25573). Happy to split that out if needed.

It might be worth checking for potential side effects of those macros on Boost.MultiIndex.
I am mainly looking for Concept ACKs on the overall change, and primarily review of d890a9e (which is shared between #25573). Happy to split that out if needed.
In my opinion, splitting it out would help.

The choice OPTION=no will disable all code for loading time zone
info from file or from the embedded static data, which means that
only the "UTC" and "GMT" time zones are defined.
Using OPTION=no results in a smaller library, so is suitable for
systems that will never need to query the time zone database.
This does not change the library ABI.

depends: patch around Boost Test std::wcrtomb usage
If libstdc++ is built with --disable-wchar_t, test_bitcoin will fail to
