#10223: Destructor of boost::mpi::environment should not throw exception

Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  mpi
  Version:  Boost 1.47.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+---------------------
 The destructor of boost::mpi::environment uses the BOOST_MPI_CHECK_RESULT
 macro to invoke MPI_Finalize.

 BOOST_MPI_CHECK_RESULT(MPI_Finalize, ());

 If MPI_Finalize does not return MPI_SUCCESS, the macro will throw
 boost::mpi::exception. However, it is not a good idea for a destructor to
 throw.


 I suggest the destructor just call MPI_Finalize() without using the MACRO
