------------------------------+------------------------
 I'm using boost 1.54 built with clang 3.2-7ubuntu.

 boost::this_thread::yield() will not throw the boost interruption
 exception when an interruption is sent to the thread.  The documentation
 indicates that it should.  If I add a
 boost::this_thread::interruption_point() the exception is thrown as
 expected.

 This is very similar to issue #7238 and the test could be modified to
 reproduce this issue.
