Comment(by niels_dekker):

 Excuse me? The patch is extremely simple. You already added the same very
 workaround to MSVC 7.1 and Metroworks. Just add "{{{||
 defined(__BORLANDC__)}}}" to the {{{#if}}} at
 [https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/trunk/boost/exception/exception.hpp#L222

 line 222 of exception.hpp] and it's ready.

 Personally I feel I have a responsibility for utility/value_init_test.cpp,
 which does not use boost::exception in any way, but still gets the compile
 errors:

 boost-bin-v2-libs-utility-test-value_init_test-test-
 borland-6-2-1-debug.html

 http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/output/siliconman-boost-

 bin-v2-libs-utility-test-value_init_test-test-borland-6-2-1-debug.html

 What should I do to fix them?

 Would it be okay to you if I commit the little patch to
 [https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/boost/exception/exception.hpp

 exception.hpp]?
