   Avoid hashing 0.5 and 0 to the same number.
 * Stop using deprecated `BOOST_HAS_*` macros.

+* Prevent implicit conversions when calling `hash_value`. If you find
+  that the new version breaks your code, you can enable the old
+  behaviour by defining `BOOST_HASH_ALLOW_IMPLICIT_CASTS` - although
+  I would recommend that you update your code to work with the new
