 Replying to [comment:4 Jonathan Wakely <jwakely.boost@…>]:
 > Did you look at the patch?  Noone suggested changing the interface to
 use return codes.  Are you familiar with boost::throw_exception?  It
 allows the user to decide what should happen. One common option is to
 abort() instead of throwing.

 I inspected the patch before posting and I know also
 boost::throw_exception. Do you mean that the application building with
 -fno-exceptions will be happy to abort instead of throwing an exception?
