Comment (by anonymous):

 The blocking option seems to be broken.
 Future destructor doesn't block even if BOOST_THREAD_FUTURE_BLOCKING is
 defined and the futture was obtained by a call to boost::async() with
 boost::launch::async, or by calling other_future.then().


 {{{
 int main()
 {
     {
         auto future = boost::async(boost::launch::async, []() {
             std::this_thread::sleep_for(1s);
             return 42;
         });
     } //future destructor doesn't block

     //do stuff...
     //-> will heppen before the future state is ready
 }
 }}}
