 Replying to [comment:1 steven_watanabe]:
 > This appears to be a spurious warning.  exception_ptr_base is an
 implementation detail and the library never deletes through a pointer to
 one.

 Maybe its spurious, but it is a nuisance... and easily to be fixed by
 adding a virtual destructor, isn't it?
