Just look higher in the the thread for Emil's definition of BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS. This is different than the one in the documentation which has never changed and in fact is part of another library. This situation has lead to much confusion as to what this macro means as noted higher in the thread.
Maybe you're confused because you're looking for a change that doesn't exist? :)
The semantics of the BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS configuration macro have not been changed. If it is defined, Boost Libraries must not throw exceptions.
I don't interpret it this way. IMO, if BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS is defined, Boost libraries throwing exceptions or using try-catch will just not be supported, which is quite different. What I mean, is that this is not a library bug but a feature. Could you point where it is written that Boost Libraries must not throw exceptions when BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS is defined?
