#11607: geometry::exception::what() needs to be public
---------------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  Tobias Reh <treh@…>  |      Owner:  barendgehrels
     Type:  Bugs                 |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined     |  Component:  geometry
  Version:  Boost 1.59.0         |   Severity:  Regression
 Keywords:                       |
---------------------------------+---------------------------
 In 1.58.0, geometry::exception did not implement a what() method(), so the
 inherited public method std::exception::what() was accessed.

 1.59.0 geometry::exception::what() returns "Boost.Geometry exception", but
 it is private and cannot be accessed!
