I checked the CVS version but failed to see how it is different from the 
current behavior. To make sure I understand your point, did you mean that 
the test case monitor could actually point to where the throw statement is 
as in the example below?

BOOST_CHECK_THROW( (throw "string exception"), std::exception  );

Again, thank you very much for your help and a great library.
