[boost] Test library and Intel CC on Linux

Hi,

The Boost.Test library is actually broken with Intel CC 7.x on Linux. And
so are all the libraries that rely on it for their regression suites. This
regression can be seen on the compiler status page:
  http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-linux.html

To sumarize the problem, the linker finds a lot of undefined reference to
"boost::throw_exception(std::exception const&)" in the binaries of the
Test library. The Test library does not even pass its own regression
tests.

I don't have time to search which modification caused all these problems,
but it would probably be a good idea to revert it.

Regards,

Guillaume
