Boost::exception is copy constructable but its copy constructor is protected
Doesn't the standard mandate a public copy constructor for exception types?
Yes, but you never throw boost::exception, you throw types that derive from it, which are required to have public copy constructor. You can still catch(boost::exception &), and you can still re-throw using a throw-expression with no operand (15.1.6).
