-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
 I'm using a subset of Boost in a project compiled with armcc and custom
 libraries. It's for an embedded system. As expected the compiler and/or
 libraries are broken, but I was able to workaround almost all problems
 with the macros `BOOST_NO_RTTI`, `BOOST_EXCEPTION_DISABLE` etc.

 However, the compiler still complains about the missing header `<new>`
 (not included in the library), because it's included by
 `smart_ptr/detail/shared_count.hpp` to have `std::bad_alloc` declared.

 But since `std::bad_alloc` is used only when BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS is
 defined (I'm ''not'' defining it) it's not always really needed. I
 attached a patch which alleviates the problem for those of us dealing with
 broken compilers and brings (I believe) no side effect for the rest of the
 community.
