 deliberately disabled in r95845 in order to cut down build time. We could
 consider undoing that change, since we do have the precompiled binaries,
 which most users can use, so build time isn't an issue for most users.

 I have `+universal` added to my variants.conf, and boost has not had a
 precompiled binary with the `+universal` variant since version 1.54, so I
 have found myself building boost from source a lot lately... Any idea why
 the buildbot built previous versions of boost with the `+universal`
 variant, but not more recent ones?
