I forgot about this one as well -- probably this will be next on my radar.

So here we should ifdef the include so that if we're supporting pre-11 c++ we will just keep using lexical cast probably the cleanest solution is to move it to the compiler_config.hpp to do the macro check. I looked and can't specific feature macro for these functions so I think I'd go with

BOOST_NO_CXX11

boost.config is already included so you should have direct access to this.

Excellent!
...clarifying question...
Is the goal to totally eliminate the dependency on boost/lexical_cast? If so then we could use cstdlib for < c++11 and string for >= c++11.
Or is the goal simply to modernize the code? If so we can use the macro approach you mentioned for < c++11 and leave the dependency on boost::lexical_cast.

I'm fine sticking with lexical_cast for 03 compiles and just modernizing for 11 and beyond. It seems likely I'll eventually drop 03 support.

so my suggestion is we write the function

#ifdef BOOST_NO_CXX11
inline unsigned short string_to_ushort(...)
{
  --> current lexical cast
}
#else     
inline unsigned short string_to_ushort(...)
{
  --> current stoul code
}
#endif

This can live here or if it's used elsewhere I'd move it to compiler_config.hpp since its a work around

return static_cast<unsigned short>(std::stoul(s, nullptr, 10));
}
else {
std::string str = convert_to_lower(s);
