10 // 13 Jun 01 report_exception() made inline. (John Maddock, Jesse Jones)
11 // 26 Feb 01 Numerous changes suggested during formal review. (Beman)
12 // 25 Jan 01 catch_exceptions.hpp code factored out of cpp_main.cpp.
13 // 22 Jan 01 Remove test_tools dependencies to reduce coupling.
14 // 5 Nov 00 Initial boost version (Beman Dawes)
