This is a repost of my original message, with a better subject line as suggested by Felipe, to perhaps attract more readers for this important discussion.

I've finished a major refactoring of the Exception library:

1) Thanks to Peter Dimov's boost/detail/sp_typeinfo.hpp, it now works with or without RTTI support.

2) I would like to thank Dave and Robert for complaining about the added weight to boost/throw_exception.hpp. I managed to reduce that cost to less than 400 lines total, all contained in boost/exception/exception.hpp which now does not #include anything (not even standard headers.) If there are more concerns about this issue, let's discuss them now.

The latest documentation can be viewed at http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/exception/doc/boost-exception.html.
