4344	[helper1.cpp] Please consider a qualified call to boost::enable_error_info	niels_dekker	Emil Dotchevski	"[https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/trunk/libs/exception/test/helper1.cpp?rev=52227 exception/test/helper1.cpp] has an unqualified call to enable_error_info:
{{{
throw enable_error_info( std::length_error(""exception test length error"") );
}}}
Because the namespace is unspecified, the compiler has to look into the global namespace, boost, boost::exception_test, and the namespace(s) associated with its argument (ADL), in order to find the best match for the enable_error_info function call. 

Is the function enable_error_info really meant to be customizable that way, by allowing to add an overload of enable_error_info to one of the namespaces associated with its argument? Otherwise I think it's preferable to do a qualified call to boost::enable_error_info:
{{{
throw boost::enable_error_info( std::length_error(""exception test length error"") );
}}}

This little modification would also make it easier to get enable_error_info_test compiling on Codegear. Your unqualified function call triggers an internal compiler error, as I just reported to Embarcadero: http://qc.embarcadero.com/wc/qcmain.aspx?d=85444
