numeric/odeint does not observe BOOST_NO_RTTI, BOOST_NO_TYPEID

[noe casas <noe.casas@…>]

Compiling code that uses odeint with g++ using -fno-rtti gives an error due to the use of typeid in math/policies/error_handling.hpp, despite me having defined BOOST_NO_RTTI and BOOST_NO_TYPEID.

Environment --------------------------------

• Ubuntu 14.04
• g++ 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1)
• boost 1.54 (although the code is the same in trunk as of today)

Compilation error --------------------------

This was fixed in Boost-1.56.
