From: Emil Dotchevski In my mind it's exactly the other way around: the main point of BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION is to support BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS builds, the other stuff is just a free bonus.
OK, but you're speaking about the motivation for development of BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION. I'm speaking about the motivation to make using BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION a guideline. Supporting non-conforming compilers is definitely not in the focus of Boost guidelines ("There is no requirement that a library run on C++ compilers which do not conform to the ISO standard.")
