Milestone:  To Be Determined              |  Component:  numeric
  Version:  Boost 1.49.0                  |   Severity:  Showstopper

------------------------------------------+-------------------------
 I have a project that is compiled with -fno-exceptions and
 -DBOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS, but I get a compilation error when I try to use
 Boost's date/time library. To reproduce the error, just say:

 {{{
 #include <boost/date_time/local_time/local_time.hpp>
 }}}

 The error is:

 {{{
 /usr/include/boost/numeric/conversion/converter_policies.hpp:162: error:
 exception handling disabled, use -fexceptions to enable
 }}}

 And the offending code in converter_policies.hpp is:

 {{{
 struct def_overflow_handler
 {
   void operator() ( range_check_result r ) //
 throw(negative_overflow,positive_overflow)
   {
     if ( r == cNegOverflow )
       throw negative_overflow() ;
     else if ( r == cPosOverflow )
            throw positive_overflow() ;
   }
 } ;
 }}}

 According to http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/no-exceptions-

 td3395091.html, BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS is actively supported and exceptions
 are always supposed to go through BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION or
 boost::throw_exception to avoid compilation errors like this one.
