No. It is undefined behavior for boost::throw_exception() to return.
To quote the throw_exception() docs:
Callers of throw_exception are allowed to assume that the function never returns; therefore, if the user-defined throw_exception returns, the behavior is undefined.
It is definitely not a bug. However you might want to consider - purely as a QoI issue, of course - to return 'false' instead of 'true' when throw_exception returns. ;-)

It's very strange. So, does it mean the exception must be enabled if the throw_exception is used ?
Either enable exceptions or define BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS and provide a user supplied throw_exception(). The user supplied throw_exception() presumably terminates the program via std::abort() or similar function. --Beman
