You don't mention what version of Boost you are using?

While I dont know if will make a difference to your specific case, I 
know that a number of iostreams bug fixes made it into the latest Boost 
1.42 release, including some related to throwing of exceptions.

For details see:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/libs/iostreams/doc/release_notes.html

If your problem was tested against Boos 1.42, I would suggest, at 
minimum, entering a new ticket at: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/
