bundy does not build with boost 1.60

[DonLewisFreeBSD]

When I attempt to build bundy with boost version 1.60, it fails with these errors because the BOOST_PFTO_WRAPPER() macro is no longer part of boost:

Sorry for not looking at this earlier. I'm not sure what the BOOST_PFTO_WRAPPER macro does, so I'm not sure what to do about it. I'll continue to dig into this at some point, but if anyone knows what this is for it would be a big help. 😃

Poking around in https://github.com/boostorg/serialization I find this:

commit 5a94e5e4eb01cd8c941db725e5f89965a91740a9
Author: Robert Ramey <ramey@rrsd.com>
Date:   Mon Mar 23 15:29:57 2015 -0700

    removed pfto

And https://kea.isc.org/ticket/4006 suggests a workaround which works for me!
