Description
On Windows with MSVC, it took me a while to figure out that I need to revert from C++23 to C++20 mode if I want the cobalt libs to be built.
This doesn't build cobalt
`b2 cxxstd=23 --with-cobalt` (see [1])
But this works
`b2 cxxstd=20 --with-cobalt` (see [2])
To me it looks more like a b2 issue, but post it here as I know nothing about the b2 build system and encountered this issue when wanting to use cobalt.
Also note the `warning: non-free usage requirements std ignored` which I'm not sure if it's fine to ignore or not (as described in #245)
I use `b2` out of habit, but is it recommended to use CMake to build boost these days?
