#9676: ptr_container without RTTI
------------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  d.leinhaeuser@…   |      Owner:  nesotto
     Type:  Bugs              |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  ptr_container
  Version:  Boost 1.55.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+---------------------------
 ptr_container requires RTTI support only when compiled in debug mode.
 The reason for this seem to be a few assertions in `clone_allocator.hpp`
 and `detail/reversible_ptr_container.hpp`, which make use of `typeid`.

 It seems to me like these assertions should be surrounded by checks for
 `BOOST_NO_TYPEID` or something to that effect, so as to enable compilation
 in debug mode without RTTI.

 Steps to reproduce:
 Attempt to compile ptr_container in debug mode with RTTI support disabled.

 Expected result:
 Compilation finishes without error.

 Actual result:
 Compilation fails with errors in `clone_allocator.hpp` and
 `detail/reversible_ptr_container.hpp` regarding use of typeid when RTTI is
 disabled.
