Description
Hello, here std::unary_function is called, which has been removed in C++ 17.
I'm using Gentoo and I can't compile qtlocation because of this problem, as it uses mapbox-gl-native, that uses mapbox-gl-native-boost.

Research direction
Start at include/boost/container_hash/hash.hpp around line 130 and compare the std::unary_function usage with the linked upstream Boost functional patch. Verify the change against the C++17 compatibility problem, then confirm that the relevant dependent build, including qtlocation through mapbox-gl-native, no longer fails for this reason.
