feenablexcept doesn't exist on Darwin
boost::test recently started using feenableexcept, which is not supported on Darwin / Apple. See https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4222 for patch. This bug is particularly annoying as it is causing many failures, as the problem is in the testing code.

I went ahead and committed the patch in 4222. We can't have such major breakage persisting on the trunk. Thanks to Chris for finding the issue and producing a fix. - Doug

The issue is hidden now. The problem with implementing this interface on darwin still exist though. According to: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/247053/ enabling-floating-point-interrupts-on-mac-os-x-intel these might be some other interfaces we can employ. Can someone with access to this platform please try to implement necessary logic based on available interfaces? Thanks, Gennadiy
