I don't know if this will be enough. For me the semantics has ben changed, 
Robert has already created its own serialization::throw_ewception which is a 
copy of the old boost::throw_exception, who will be the next?

IMO, we need to provide the old boost::throw_exception publically on boost, 
even if we change its name,  before each library developer and user define 
its own throw_ewception.

Can you provide some performance results comparing the old and the new 
implementations?
