Thanks for the suggestion.  Unfortunately this only gives me the line number
of the last BOOST_xxx macro executed, whereas the exception is thrown from
deep within the code, long after the last BOOST_xxx macro has been used.

It sounds like I might have to delve into the UTF source, perhaps if I can put
an assert(false) when UTF handles an exception that might work, as assertion
failures seem to be accessible through the debugger without any trouble.

Cheers,
Adam.
