<li> If <tt>BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS</tt> is defined, the function is left undefined, and the user is expected to supply an appropriate definition. Callers of <tt>throw_exception</tt> are allowed to assume that the function never returns; therefore, if the user-defined <tt>throw_exception</tt> returns, the behavior is undefined.</li>
