There is also quite a bit of discussion related to recent boost upgrade
in thud:

No objection from me, but it would be good to keep
"Requesting a fix in a stable branch" section mentioned in:
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2019-March/280177.html
in mind even more while doing this.

There is always a risk of breaking the stable branch even with minor
upgrade, so we shouldn't take all minor upgrades from newer branches
just because they exist - until someone asks for backport because of
security concerns or bugs found while using such stable branch.
