Thanks, happy with the changes. Don't see why the spack PR wouldn't go through as it is now. @AlexanderRichert-NOAA can you please review both the spack mainline PR and this one?

Description
This PR properly defines BOOST_NO_CXX98_FUNCTION_BASE when building ecflow with the C++17 standard. The ecflow CMake configuration has been setting the C++17 standard since version 5.8.3 (ie, using the
-std=gnu++17compiler option). When using C++17, the boost executor.hpp include file needs to have BOOST_NO_CXX98_FUNCTION_BASE defined to build successfully.I have a PR in the authoritative spack repo (spack#41120) with corresponding updates. The changes in this PR were made by cherry picking the commits from spack#41120.
I've tested these changes on my Mac and verified that building ecflow (5.11.4) works when using [email protected] compilers.
