There's not been any deliberate dropping of support for VC6 in Boost.Regex,
but:
* We stopped testing it a while back (and I haven't had it installed on my
machine for some time to test with locally).
* Boost.Regex's dependencies may have dropped VC6 support even if the regex
lib hasn't (shared_ptr for example).
Sorry I can't be more definite, but this is a *very* old compiler now!
HTH, John.
